Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Letter to the Landowners of Great Britain and Ireland, on the Advantages That Would Result From Taking Off the Tax on Malt Now this, the pure doctrine of free trade, is most beautiful as a theory; no one can dispute it in a lecture-room; no one question it in a treatise; but the point for English statesmen to consider is, what effect would this doctrine have on the welfare of Britain How would it stand the friction of human prejudices, of human passions, and interests? It is not enough that the engine should work well on the smooth floor of the philosopher's room; we must see it out in the highways, and ascertain whether it would be able to surmount the inequalities of ground, and the obstructions which nature opposes to the working of art.
