Excerpt from The Way to Be Rich and Respectable: Addressed to Men of Small Fortune
For many ages coaches were fo great a luxury that none but old families were feen in them; and if they attempted, once in a dozen years, to travel a few miles in one, perhaps, in the courfe of the journey, a whole village with their teams was called in aid, to drag the heavy ve hiele out of the clay, and fet it on its wheels again riding on horfeback being the only means of vifiting aneighbour, beyond the reach of a walk, and that only in the fummer-time. And it is but a very few years fince, that ladies went about, from place to place, upon a pillion.' Made roads were then unknown, and fo little defire had the people to {tir beyond the bounds of their parifh, that even mending them was never thought of.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This 1774 book by an anonymous author explores the changing values and mores of 18th century English aristocracy. It is a detailed account of the profligate spending habits of the upper class, and how their uncontrolled consumption of luxury goods and resources leads to social and economic imbalances. The author shows how extravagance and debt are destroying England's gentry, and provides numerous examples of how the pursuit of luxury leads to moral decay and the erosion of traditional values. The author advocates for a return to simplicity, self-sufficiency, and living within one's means. This book is a valuable historical document providing insight into the social and economic problems of 18th century England. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
