First published in 1904, this volume emerged during a split within
the Liberal Unionist Party over Joseph Chamberlain's advocacy of
Protectionism through Tariff Reform. Having originally broken with
the Liberal Party over Home Rule in 1885, 1904 saw some Liberal
Unionists return to the Liberal fold. The authors here constitute
those departing Liberal Unionists in a multifaceted rallying call
for Free Trade in the face of Protectionism. Their articles, on
subjects such as Shipping, Agriculture and Engineering, assess the
implications of Free Trade with a focus on each author's specialist
industry. The authors unanimously declare in favour of the system
under which, they maintain, Great Britain developed unparalleled
prosperity and taught other nations her industrial success. In the
process, they demonstrate that trade cannot improve whilst fettered
and focus on the potential for real improvements through Free
Trade.
Outside of major metropolitan areas, the fight for lesbian, gay,
bisexual, and transgender rights has had its own unique and rich
history—one that is quite different from the national narrative
set in New York and California. Out in Central Pennsylvania
highlights one facet of this lesser-known but equally important
story, immersing readers in the LGBTQ community building and social
networking that has taken place in the small cities and towns in
the heart of Pennsylvania from the 1960s to the present day.
Drawing from oral histories and the archives of the LGBT Center of
Central PA History Project, this book recounts the innovative ways
that LGBTQ central Pennsylvanians organized to demand civil rights
and to improve their quality of life in a region that often
rejected them. Full of compelling stories of individuals seeking
community and grappling with inequity, harassment, and
discrimination, and featuring a distinctive trove of historical
photographs, Out in Central Pennsylvania is a local story with
national implications. It brings rural and small-town queer life
out into the open and explores how LGBTQ identity and social
advocacy networks can form outside of a large urban environment.
