Excerpt from The Trade Policy of Great Britain and Her Colonies Since 1860
The following book, which was published in Leipzig in 1893, forms the final part of the first great publication issued by the Verein fur Sozialpolitik, on the Trade Policy of the different countries, entitled Die Handelspolitik der wichtigeren Kulturstaaten in den letzten Jahrzeknten. Giving, as it does, the first history that has been written, either in English or German, on the period under discussion, it had to be taken from the original sources, i.e. blue books, periodicals, and pamphlets, and from information given by word of mouth.
My grateful thanks are due, for the assistance rendered me in writing it, to Professor Brentano of Munich, the late Professor Munro of Manchester, Professor Foxwell of Cambridge, the late Sir Rawson W. Rawson, Mr. James Edgcome, Mr. Arthur Loring, Mr. Richard Goring, the late Right Hon. A. J. Mundella, the late Lord Farrer, Sir Robert Giffen, Sir Howard Vincent, M.P., and, not least, my late uncle, Mr. Charles Waydelin, who first introduced me to English economic life.
It was not without reluctance that I consented to the issue of this edition, as I had no wish to be drawn into the political campaign now being carried on in England on the Fiscal Question. I, therefore, gave my consent, only under the condition that the rendering should be close and scientific.
