''Property and Progress'' is a book written by William Hurrell Mallock in 1884. It is a brief inquiry into the contemporary social agitation in England during the Victorian era. The book explores the relationship between property ownership and social progress, arguing that the two are closely linked. Mallock argues that the current social agitation in England is driven by a misguided belief that progress can only be achieved through the redistribution of wealth and property. He argues that this approach is flawed and that it will ultimately lead to the stagnation of society. Instead, Mallock advocates for a more conservative approach to social change, one that values the importance of property ownership and the role it plays in promoting progress. The book is a reflection of the conservative values that were prevalent in Victorian England and provides insight into the social and political debates of the time. Overall, ''Property and Progress'' is an important historical document that sheds light on the social and political issues of the Victorian era.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
