A Discourse of Trade and A Discourse Concerning Coining the New Money Lighter, in Answer to Mr Locke's Considerations About Raising the Value of Money:

About this book

This edition presents Nicholas Barbon's two main economic A Discourse of Trade and A Discourse Concerning the New Money Lighter in a modernised version. Some archaisms were removed in order to improve the fluency of the reading (such as changing betwixt to between, hath to has, and mony to money), some names and places were modernised (such as Lock to Locke, when referring to the English philosopher, Orchadis to Orcades, and Sueden to Sweden), and the excessive midline capitalisation often found in old texts was also transformed in today’s standard capitalisation. All these numerous editions were made in order to make the text more readable for today's reader while still being faithful to the author as much as possible
