1764WRCAM54454ALondon: Printed by Mark Baskett.and by the Assigns of Robert Baskett 1764. 2275-299pp. Folio. Loose gatherings stab holes at gutter margins. Near fine. An outstanding copy of the rare official Parliamentary printing for the "Grenville Budget" of 1764 accompanied by three later acts amending regulations set forth. This budget act contains the so-called "Sugar Act" which was the first deliberate and direct attempt to tax the American colonies in order to pay for the British military presence in North America. <br> <br> The Sugar Act levied a tax of three pence per gallon on the importation of foreign molasses molasses from the British West Indies would be exempt from the tax. But the proposed legislation did far more than tax sugar products. It also detailed more foreign goods to be taxed including certain wines coffee pimiento cambric and printed calico and further regulated the export of lumber and iron. The enforced tax on molasses caused the almost immediate decline in the rum industry in the colonies. <br> <br> The final part of the title of the Act was Grenville's response to the British Customs Board's estimate that the annual revenue from American customs was a paltry £1800. Grenville whose guiding principles were strict adherence to legality and financial solvency found this state of affairs to be intolerable. Existing trade regulations designed to raise greater revenue would be more rigidly enforced with incentives offered to naval officers and customs officials. <br> <br> This Budget Act of 1764 set the tone for many of the British policies and measures that followed. A chain of events was set in motion which would lead step by step to the American Revolution. Reaction in the colonies was not long in coming. In Massachusetts James Otis and Samuel Adams fired pamphlets at it; the merchants of Boston banded together to protest; other colonial writers from Newport to Williamsburg added their voices; in England Thomas Pownall and others defended the step. All understood that a new era had dawned with the so-called Sugar Act. <br> <br> The present copy is accompanied by three further scarce acts of Parliament related to the statutes set forth by the Sugar Act. The first from 1765 alters the duties imposed on sugar imports. The other two from 1777 and 1779 made amendments to address penalties for smuggling sugar from America into Great Britain during the Revolution. They are as follows: <br> <br> 1 AN ACT FOR MORE EFFECTUALLY SECURING AND ENCOURAGING THE TRADE OF HIS MAJESTY'S AMERICAN DOMINIONS.FOR ALTERING THE BOUNTIES AND DRAWBACKS UPON SUGAR EXPORTED. caption title.

1748WRCAM27927London: M. Cooper 1748. 21pp. Dbd. Internally clean and fresh. Very good. From the establishment of the sugar colonies in the 17th century taxation on exports and imports to and from the colonies was a matter of continuous debate in Parliament. Enter less expensive French sugar particularly for distillation purposes in New England and questions of appropriate duties reach a fervor in the 1730s in part resulting in the Molasses Act of 1733. Colonial merchants ignored the Molasses Act almost universally perpetuating the discussion of how to best garner revenue from the colonies made more timely by the depleted funds of Britain's exchequer at the close of King George's War in 1748. Preceding the infamous Sugar Act by seventeen years this pamphlet represents yet another voice in the crescendoing sugar tax discourse. SABIN 68280. KRESS S3804. HANSON 6182. GOLDSMITHS 8353. M.
