註釋"The East India Company describes how the Company created and built up its extraordinary trading empire, how it conducted its day-to-day business at home and in the East, and the sequence of events that led to its eventual absorption by the British Crown. The story is broadly chronological, but also focuses on particular subjects and areas - ships and travel, wars, the Company in London, the opium trade, the Mutiny (India's First War of Independence), the 'Piece Trade' and the daily life of the rulers amongst the ruled." "The largest multinational business that the world has ever seen, the East India Company has played a crucial role in the development of the world as we know it and its history is woven into the very fabric of British society and culture. The year 2000 is the 400th anniversary of the founding of this powerful institution."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc. All Rights Reserved
