Post Office Reform: Its Importance And Practicability is a book written by Rowland Hill in 1837. The book is a detailed analysis of the postal system in England at the time and proposes a series of reforms to improve its efficiency and affordability. Hill argues that the current system is outdated and inefficient, and that the high cost of postage is a barrier to communication for many people. He proposes a uniform postage rate based on weight rather than distance, which would make it more affordable for people to send letters and parcels. The book also discusses the need for improved infrastructure, including the construction of new post offices and the introduction of a more reliable system for delivering mail. Hill argues that these reforms would not only benefit individuals and businesses, but would also have a positive impact on the economy as a whole. Post Office Reform: Its Importance And Practicability was a groundbreaking book that had a significant impact on the postal system in England. Hill's proposals were eventually adopted, leading to the introduction of the penny post and the establishment of a more efficient and affordable postal service. The book remains an important historical document, providing insight into the development of the postal system and the role of government in promoting communication and commerce.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
