From the author
Taxation goes back as far as recorded history.
However, it was not until the start of the great civilizations that we see
tax collected for a Kingdom by an organized group, dedicated to that sole
task. There have been taxes to help maintain resources like boats, cities,
safe passage, ports, palaces, construction projects, and perhaps the most
popular reason, to fund conflicts. This brief history captures the most
important landmarks in taxation through the centuries. If you are a UK or US
tax payer and want to understand how your taxes developed to what they are
today then you need to read this book.
