A Proposal For Improving And Adorning The Island Of Great Britain: For The Maintenance Of Our Navy And Shipping is a book written by Edward Wade and originally published in 1755. The book outlines a plan for improving and beautifying Great Britain in order to support its navy and shipping industry. Wade argues that the country's naval power and economic success depend on the quality of its infrastructure, including roads, canals, and ports. He suggests several projects to improve these areas, such as building new canals and harbors, improving existing roads, and creating new trade routes. Additionally, Wade proposes several aesthetic improvements, such as planting trees and creating public gardens and parks. The book is an interesting historical document that provides insight into the economic and political concerns of 18th-century Great Britain.For The Employment And Perpetual Relief Of Our Poor, For Increasing The Number Of Our Inhabitants, And For Various Other Public Services.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
