Description - A World History of Tax Rebellions by David F. Burg
"A World History of Tax Rebellions" is an exhaustive reference source for over 4300 years of riots, rebellions, protests and war triggered by abusive taxation and tax collecting systems around the world. Each of the chronologically arranged entries focuses on a specific historical event, analysing its roots and socio-economic context. Readers can visit familiar uprisings like the Boston Tea Party, while discovering lesser-known events such as the Mauritanian Rebellion in 4th-century Africa, the Marriage Aid Protest in medieval France and the 1765 Rebellion of the Barrios in Ecuador. A separate A-to-Z biographical section introduces revolt leaders, activists and other personalities that make up the full, and often painful, history of taxation.
