Book Description
The Rise of Commercial Empires is a work of major importance for the economic history of both Europe and North America. It is an analysis of a crucial transformation in the history of world trade, as through both natural situation and active state intervention London and its hinterland grew during the eighteenth century to become the first true entrepot. This was a new kind of structure at the core of the world economy, and sharply distinct from the commercial supremacy enjoyed by Holland and Amsterdam during the seventeenth century.
