COMMENDATORY OPINIONS OF PERSONS WHO HAVE READ THE BOOK
From the late Professor Goldwin Smith, Toronto, Canada
“It is not only a most decisive confutation of the Protectionist fallacy, but a rich repertory of illustrative facts. If anything can successfully contend against the passion for the accumulation of wealth, entrenched as it is in political power, Mr. Franklin Pierce’s reasoning, supported by his array of the results of experience, will prevail.”
From Miss Ida M. Tarbell, author of “The Tariff in Our Times”
“It strikes me as being an unusually interesting and important presentation of the subject. I have never seen a better comparative statement of British and American shipping than your vivid chapter. I wish it could be widely read.”
From George A. Fuller, Master of the New York State Grange, Philadelphia, N. Y.
“I consider it the most useful contribution to the literature on the trust question that has ever been published.... absolute fairness in dealing with a question that few men have the ability to discuss without being influenced in their judgment by the traditions and policies of their favorite political party. He has given us a treatise ... which appeals to men’s reason and common sense, regardless of their party affiliations. The chapter entitled ‘A Talk with Farmers’ is unique in its force and simplicity, and in the crushing force of its logic.”
From David Starr Jordan, President of Leland Stanford University
