A Letter On The Distresses Of The Country: Addressed To His Royal Highness The Duke Of Kent (1817) is a book written by John Ashton Yates. The book is a letter addressed to the Duke of Kent, discussing the economic and social distresses faced by the people of England in the early 19th century. The author highlights the issues of poverty, unemployment, and the high cost of living, and suggests various solutions to alleviate these problems. Yates argues that the government should take immediate action to provide relief to the suffering people, and proposes several measures, including the establishment of a national bank, the reduction of taxes, and the implementation of a fairer system of distribution of wealth. The book is an insightful analysis of the economic and social conditions of England during the early 19th century and offers valuable insights into the political and economic debates 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.
