A Letter To Samuel Whitbread: On His Proposed Bill For The Amendment Of The Poor Laws (1807) is a book written by Thomas Robert Malthus. It is a critical analysis of a proposed bill by Samuel Whitbread, a British politician, aimed at amending the poor laws. Malthus argues against the bill, stating that it would only increase the burden on the poor and lead to more poverty. He suggests that instead of providing more aid to the poor, the government should focus on improving their economic conditions by promoting industry and agriculture. Malthus also discusses the causes of poverty and the role of population growth in exacerbating the problem. The book is a significant contribution to the debate on poor laws and their impact on society. It is written in a clear and concise style and provides valuable insights into the economic and social issues of the time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
