Constructive Imperialism
Milner, Alfred Milner, Viscount
Great Britain -- Politics and government -- 1901-1910
These "Four Addresses on the Logical Groundwork of the Free Trade
Theory," as they are described by the author on the title-page, are
nothing less than a frontal attack on the dogmas of the Manchester
School, as sacrificing the permanent interests of the nation to the
ephemeral interests of the individual. They are bound on account of
their originality and ability to provoke considerable controversy, and
to compel the Cobdenites to make some attempt at an answer. The
chapters are successively entitled "The Individualist Fallacy," "The
Capitalist Fallacy," "The Trade Fallacy," and "Free Trade Psychology
and Free Trade History."
This is essentially a book to be read, marked, learned, and inwardly
digested by all serious students of public affairs.

The OUTLOOK says:
"Its pages are packed with vital writing ... foreign and
domestic affairs are discussed with masculine ability and
vigour ... a monthly survey of Imperial affairs such as no
other publication offers."
The SPECTATOR says:
"We do not hesitate to say that the 'National's Episodes'
are among the most brilliant, if, indeed, not the most
brilliant, contributions to modern political journalism.
Their verve, their fearlessness, their independence, and
their sincerity would alone render them remarkable; but in
addition they are written in a style as clear and buoyant as
it is picturesque and unconventional."
