This book presents the complex subject of tariffs, trade barriers, and their potential consequences, including their theory and history, with recent examples. It also presents historical and cultural tidbits, such as how the press ridiculed the embargo of 1870 by referring to it as "O grab me!", and South Carolina's threatened and actual secession from the Union.
