The Drapier's Letters
The Drapier's Letters is the collective name for a series of seven pamphlets written by Jonathan Swift in 1724 and 1725 to arouse public opinion in Ireland against the imposition of a privately-minted copper coinage of inferior quality. As the subject was politically sensitive, Swift wrote under the pseudonym M. B. Drapier.
