Charles Povey
The Unhappiness of England, as to its Trade by Sea and Land is a book written by Charles Povey in 1701. The book is a critical analysis of England’s economic situation at the time, focusing primarily on its trade industry. Povey argues that England’s trade industry is suffering due to a lack of government support and protection, as well as the actions of foreign nations. He also criticizes the country’s agricultural practices and suggests ways to improve them. The book provides a detailed account of the challenges facing England’s economy in the early 18th century and offers recommendations for how to address them. It is a valuable historical document that sheds light on the economic and political climate of the time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some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.
