Richard Cobden: The International Man is a biography written by John Atkinson Hobson and published in 1919. The book chronicles the life and achievements of Richard Cobden, a prominent British politician and economist who played a significant role in the mid-19th century in advocating for free trade and international cooperation.The book begins by discussing Cobden's early life and background, including his upbringing in a middle-class family and his early involvement in the textile industry. It then goes on to describe his political career, which was marked by his advocacy for free trade and his opposition to protectionism.Hobson also discusses Cobden's international work, including his efforts to promote peace between Britain and France and his involvement in the negotiations that led to the Cobden-Chevalier Treaty, which established free trade between Britain and France.Throughout the book, Hobson provides a detailed account of Cobden's life and achievements, drawing on a range of primary sources and contemporary accounts. He also offers his own analysis of Cobden's contributions to political and economic thought, as well as his impact on British and international politics.Overall, Richard Cobden: The International Man is a comprehensive and engaging biography that sheds light on the life and work of one of Britain's most influential political figures.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
