Publisher's Synopsis

""The Farmers and the Clergy: Six Letters to the Farmers of England on Tithes and Church Property"" is a book written by Roake and Varty in 1831. The book is a collection of six letters addressed to the farmers of England, discussing the issue of tithes and church property. The authors argue that the current system of tithes, which requires farmers to give a portion of their crops to the church, is unfair and outdated. They also criticize the church's ownership of large amounts of land, which they argue could be put to better use by the farmers. The book is an important historical document that sheds light on the social and economic conditions of England in the early 19th century, and provides insight into the struggles of farmers and their relationship with the church.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
