By William Spence

Book Overview

""Britain Independent of Commerce"" is a book written by William Spence in 1807. The book provides an investigation into the true causes of the wealth of nations, arguing that Britain should become independent of commerce. Spence believes that Britain's reliance on trade with other nations is detrimental to its economy and suggests that the country should focus on developing its own resources and industries instead. The book is a critique of the prevailing economic theories of the time and offers a unique perspective on the role of commerce in national wealth. Spence's arguments are well-researched and offer a compelling case for Britain to become self-sufficient.
