Bad Times: An Essay On The Present Depression Of Trade, Tracing It To Its Sources In Enormous Foreign Loans (1885) is a book written by Alfred Russel Wallace. The book is an essay that explores the economic depression of trade during the late 19th century, and it traces the sources of this depression to the practice of taking out enormous foreign loans. Wallace’s analysis delves into the causes and effects of this practice, and he argues that it has led to a cycle of economic instability and hardship for many people. The book is a critical examination of the economic policies and practices of the time, and it provides insights into the challenges faced by people during this period of economic upheaval.
