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

Published by Scala Publishers. 1st. 2011

Very good condition in a 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.

Base of spine and top rear corner of boards bumped. Some grubby marks internally. Top corners of contents are creased as if dropped at some point. Pictorial dustwrapper is lightly faded to spine and a little scuffed.
