MONSOON TRADERS: THE MARITIME WORLD OF THE EAST INDIA COMPANY

by H.V. Bowen; John McAleer; Robert J. Blyth

Published by Scala Publishers. 1st. 2011

Nearly fine condition in a slightly better than very good dustwrapper. The maritime story of the East India Company is one of wealth, power and the pursuit of fortune but is also a story of conflict, conquest and piracy on the high seas. This book explores the Company's origins and its early encounters with Asia, as well as its rise to wealth and trading pre-eminence. Cream paper boards, silver title to spine. B/w pictorial endpapers. Colour illustrations. 192 pages including index.

Top & tail of spine and corners lightly bumped. Title to spine reads from bottom to top suggesting the contents are bound upside down in the covers (but not noticeable unless you look at the title to spine). Pictorial dustwrapper is faded to spine.
