An Answer To A Pamphlet: Entitled Taxation No Tyranny (1775) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781104012724)

""An Answer to a Pamphlet: Entitled Taxation No Tyranny"" is a political pamphlet written by Samuel Johnson in 1775. The book was written in response to a pamphlet written by a British politician named George Grenville, who argued that the American colonies should be taxed without their consent. In his response, Johnson argues that the idea of taxing the colonies without their consent is unjust and tyrannical. He also argues that the British government should work to reconcile with the colonies rather than imposing their will upon them. The book is a powerful defense of the rights of the American colonies and an important contribution to the debate over colonial taxation in the lead-up to the American Revolution.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
