Publisher's Synopsis
""Commercial Reciprocity"" is a book written by William Whitman in 1903, in which he argues that commercial reciprocity between the United States and Canada is not feasible. Whitman, who was a prominent businessman and politician, provides a detailed analysis of the economic and political factors that make commercial reciprocity impracticable. He argues that the economies of the two countries are too different, and that any attempt to create a reciprocal trade agreement would result in an unfair advantage for one side or the other. Furthermore, he contends that the political differences between the two countries, particularly with regard to tariffs and trade policies, make it impossible to establish a mutually beneficial agreement. The book provides a valuable historical perspective on the issues surrounding commercial reciprocity between the United States and Canada, and is a must-read for anyone interested in trade and economic relations between these two nations.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
