Beschreibung

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. This book describes how commerce was carried on by American merchants in the early years of our his tory and illustrates how contemporary political events in America and Europe afiected American trade. By tracing the career of a typical family of New Eng land merchants a picture is obtained of that romantic period when diminutive ships, manned often by mere boys and laden with homely cargoes of rum, fish, cheese, or lumber, sailed away for the distant markets of the East, to return years later, their holds filled with teas, spices, or rich silks.
