Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a comprehensive guide to the intricacies of trade with China in the mid-19th century. The author, a translator for the British mercantile community in Canton, provides an invaluable glimpse into the complexities of the Chinese commercial landscape, a world transformed… by the Opium Wars and the ensuing treaties.

The author carefully details sailing directions for the Chinese coast, weaving in historical anecdotes and practical advice for navigating treacherous waters and negotiating with local populations. Detailed descriptions of Chinese weights, measures, and currency are presented, providing a window into the economic realities of the time. Ultimately, this book sheds light on a pivotal moment in global trade history, capturing the dynamic interplay between the East and West as China navigated a new era of commercial interaction.
