WOW! Yet again you have unveiled a hugely important part of USA history that has (oh so conveniently) gone missing from our awareness. Thank you Dr Williamson for this work. I look forward to reading your book. Can you recommend an article that sums up the early history of taxation that I could share widely since not to many folk I know would take on a book without a taste to get inspired as I am? Thank you both so much.

So glad you enjoyed, Barbara! I relayed your request to Dr. Williamson for some articles. Here's what she sent me:

Thank you and Dr Williamson for these. I will see now if I can get some folks to read at least this much. Hope you have a great Tday break.
