Excerpt from "Shells"; National Finance; Imperial Preference; Liberalism: Three Speeches
Hardly less important is the removal of the restrictions and embar goes which, though they may be for the moment profitable to this or that particular trade, are hampering and throttling trade at large at the expense of the producer and consumer alikefi In my opinion, the war restrictions have become, now that the war is over, simply a disguised system of Protection. Another of our new masters of administration, Sir Auckland Geddes, who is temporarily run ning the Board of Trade, got nearer the truth than perhaps he knew in an ingenious phrase which I see he dropped the other day about nursing the baby. That is exactly what it is - nursing' the baby. Protection everywhere, and at all times, in all shapes, could not be more tersely or more happily described.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book is a detailed examination of the First World War, focusing on politics, history, and the controversies surrounding its prosecution. The author draws on speeches, letters, and documents from the period to provide a comprehensive look at the war effort, from the perspective of British Prime Minister H. H. Asquith. The book gives special attention to the munitions shortage of 1915, after which Asquith gave a famous speech at Newcastle. Asquith provides a defense of his actions and those of his government, and an overview of the historical context that shaped his decisions, as well as his responses to critics such as Field-Marshal Lord French, who wrote a book of his own about the war. The author's deep dive into the events of the war and their political backdrop provides readers with a better understanding of the challenges and complexities of fighting the first fully industrialized war.
