Letters On The Corn Laws: And On The Rights Of The Working Classes (1835) is a book written by H. B. T. that discusses the impact of the Corn Laws on the working classes in England during the 19th century. The Corn Laws were tariffs on imported grain that protected British farmers but also increased the price of bread, a staple food for the working classes. In the book, H. B. T. argues that the Corn Laws were unjust and contributed to the suffering of the working classes, who were already struggling with low wages and poor living conditions. The author also addresses broader issues related to the rights of the working classes, including the need for better education and representation in government.The book is composed of a series of letters written by H. B. T. to various individuals, including politicians and fellow activists. Each letter addresses a specific aspect of the Corn Laws and their impact on the working classes, and provides evidence and arguments to support the author's position.Overall, Letters On The Corn Laws: And On The Rights Of The Working Classes (1835) is an important historical document that sheds light on the social and economic conditions of 19th century England, and the struggles of the working classes to achieve greater rights and freedoms.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
