""An Essay On The Tithe System: Showing Its Foundation On The Laws Of The Land, Its Advantages, And Disadvantages"" is a book written by W. Baxter and published in 1822. The book explores the tithe system, which was a tax on agricultural produce that was paid to the church in England. The author examines the legal basis for the system and evaluates its benefits and drawbacks. Baxter argues that the tithe system was founded on the laws of the land and was therefore a legitimate tax. He also suggests that the system had advantages, such as providing a source of income for the church and supporting the poor. However, he acknowledges that there were also disadvantages, such as the burden it placed on farmers and the potential for abuse by the clergy. Overall, ""An Essay On The Tithe System"" provides a comprehensive analysis of the controversial tax system and its impact on English society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
