Excise Taxation and the Origins of Public Debt - Palgrave Studies in the History of Finance
D'Maris Coffman
This book offers a wholesale reinterpretation of both the introduction of excise taxation in Great Britain in the 1640s and the genesis of the Financial Revolution of the 1690s. A fresh reading of William Petty's Treatise on Taxes illustrates the development of an indigenous discourse in defence of the tax state.
