''Letters On The Sound-Dues-Question: One To Seven'' is a book written by Hugh Farrar McDermott and published in 1855. The book is a collection of seven letters written by McDermott on the issue of sound dues, which were taxes imposed on vessels passing through the Sound, a narrow strait between Denmark and Sweden. The letters were originally published in various newspapers and journals in England and Denmark between 1842 and 1852. In the letters, McDermott argues against the imposition of sound dues, which he sees as an unfair and arbitrary tax on trade. He argues that the sound dues are a violation of international law and that they have a negative impact on commerce and the economy. McDermott also discusses the history and politics of the sound dues, including the various attempts to abolish or reform them. The book provides a fascinating insight into the political and economic debates of the mid-19th century, as well as the history of international trade and taxation. McDermott’s arguments are well-researched and persuasive, and the book is an important historical document that sheds light on a little-known aspect of European history. Overall, ''Letters On The Sound-Dues-Question: One To Seven'' is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of trade, taxation, and international relations.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
