Just taxes: The politics of taxation in Britain, 1914-1979 (Cambridge University Press 2002) by Martin Daunton
Cambridge University Economic History Professor Martin Daunton has
pulled off the astounding feat of writing not just one, but two books
about the history of taxation that are not only thoroughly researched
and thoughtful but are written in such a lively style and illustrated
with so many wonderful quotations, cartoons and graphs as to actually be
a pleasure to read
