The article focuses on the book "Cobden and Modern Political Opinion. Essays on Certain Political Topics," by James E. Thorold Rogers. The book contains some very valuable discussions upon subjects of the first importance. Ten essays are published in the book and all of them are marked by vigorous thought and reasoning, although each one of them differs considerably in merit. The first three papers are disappointing, on account of the extraordinarily clumsy and obscure style. In the rest of the essays the author's style is better, which however, is never of the first order. The object of the book is "to define the place which economist Richard Cobden holds in the political and economical history of England.
