An Irrefragable Argument Fully Proving, That To Discharge Great Debts Is Less Injury, And More Reasonable, Than To Discharge Small Debts. ... By Samuel Byrom,

This work, first published in 1728, is a treatise on the ethics of indebtedness. Byrom argues that it is more moral to default on a large debt than a small one, as the latter is likely to cause more harm to the creditor. The book provides a fascinating insight into the social and moral values of the time, as well as the intricacies of early modern economics.
