Excerpt from The Land and Yourself: Popular Discussion of the Land Question and of the Proposals Advanced for Its Solution

Mr. Samuel does not categorically assert what line of solution his study of the problem suggests to him; but he inclines to the view that, so far as the rural side of the problem is concerned, its solution will lie in the direction of better housing for labourers, together with an economic foothold for bargain ing, and a division of land into the tenancy system of small holdings which has worked so well and effectively in Scotland, to adjust the balance between the agricultural and industrial elements in the country. As to the urban side, his view is not so precisely formulated; but his analysis of the various policies advocated will well repay a careful perusal.

Whether he agrees with the views expressed or no, anyone who is interested in the current political life cannot fail to find this book a useful and a profitable one to read.
