Default Unabridged copy of the "Evils of tea and virtue of beer" article

I'm sure a good number of you have seen quotes from William Cobbett's
Evils of tea article ( http://www.quite.com/misc/tea1.htm ) but I was
wondering if anyone has a complete copy of this insane essay or knows
where one may be found online.

Er...if you Google Cottage Economy (which is the title of the piece which
the tea article was extracted from as is stated on the page you provided a
link to) you will get some sources... Are you asking us to do the searching
for you? Check the Cornell site.

No, I've already spent several hours searching for it without making
any progress besides finding online stores that sold print copies of
Cottage Economy; so I wanted to try checking in here figuring that
chances are someone else might have already managed to track down a
copy. Anyway thanks for the Cornell link I'll be sure to follow up
with it when I have the chance.
