In 'Free Trade with India', the author active in 1813 presents a compelling argument for liberalizing trade relations with India during a time when protectionist policies dominated economic discourse. The book is written in a clear and persuasive style, utilizing common sense arguments to advocate for the economic benefits of free trade. This work is situated within the context of the British East India Company's monopoly over trade with India, challenging the prevailing notion that protectionism is necessary for economic prosperity. The author's clear and concise writing style makes the complex economic concepts accessible to a wider audience, making it a valuable contribution to the discourse on trade policies in the 19th century.
