Wallace, A: Bad Times -

Résumé :
Excerpt from Bad Times: An Essay on the Present Depression of Trade The present work was written last March, in competition for the Pears prize of one hundred guineas for the best essay on the present depression of trade. It did not obtain the prize, and it is therefore now submitted to the judgment of the public - and more especially of the working classes, with some additional matter in the earlier chapters which could not be compressed within the limits assigned to the competing essays.
