The Australian Protectionist (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781143679162)

"The Australian Protectionist" by Francis Gould Smith offers a compelling snapshot of economic and political thought in 19th-century Australia. Advocating for protectionist policies, Smith's work provides valuable insight into the debates surrounding trade, industry, and national identity during a formative period in Australian history.

This book is a crucial resource for understanding the development of economic policy and nationalist sentiment in Australia. It explores the arguments for safeguarding local industries and promoting self-sufficiency in a rapidly changing global economy. Smith's analysis remains relevant for anyone interested in the historical roots of contemporary economic and political discussions.
