The East India Trade in the 17th Century, in Its Political and Economic Aspects (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Excerpt from The East India Trade in the 17th Century, in Its Political and Economic Aspects The East India Trade in the seventeenth century has exercised a strange fascination on the minds of many of the most erudite and conscientious historians. The pioneering work of the Company's factors, the administrative mechanism evolved by the supple and shrewd Directors of the English East India Company, the plantation of English factories in the heart of India, and the interesting problems that developed inevitably out of their contact with the Moghuls, have all been discussed by previous writers. Mr. William Foster's monumental work on the English Factories in India, Sir William Hunters History of British India, and Professor W. R. Scott's Constitution and Finance of English etc. Joint-Stock Companies have thrown a flood of light on the leading events in the early history of the East India Company. Of the earlier writers, it is sufficient to mention the works of Bruce and Macpherson. The present work deals with the subject from a different standpoint. I have traced the history of the East India Trade in the seventeenth century, and estimated its influence on the foreign, no less than the economic, policy of England during the period. The question, How far and to what extent was the English economic and foreign policy affected by the East India Trade? could be answered only after a thorough and careful study of the data for the period. I tried to utilize the essential data preserved in the British Museum Library, the Bodleian Library, the India Office Library and Record Department, and the Public Record Office. Those who take an interest in the bibliography of the subject are referred to my articles in the Journal of Indian History founded and edited by me, and published by the Department of Modern Indian History, Allahabad University. I hope to be able to reprint them next year. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books
