Britain and the China trade 1635-1842 This multi-volume work covers Britain's commercial operations in India from 1695-1842, with particular focus on meetings between British diplomats and Chinese officials in 1793 and 1816. It is designed to combine early works on the subject and significant relevant primary sources for reference use. The first five volumes consist of Hosea Ballou Morse's Chronicles of the East India Company Trading to China, 1635-1834, included for its significant transcription work of records from the India Office. Volume VI is a reprint of The Crucial Years of Early Anglo-Chinese relations, 1750-1800 by E H Pritchard, a later study that used Morse's statistics. Volume IX is Michael Greenberg's British Trade and the Opening of China 1800-42. The remaining volumes are a collection of relevant primary sources. Volumes VII and VIII examine the Macartney embassy of 1792 from different angles; Volume VII contains instructions issued to Macartney by the East India Company; Volume VIII is Macartney's private journal of the embassy. Finally, Volume X is Notes of Proceedings and Occurences During the British embassy to Pekin in 1816 by Sir George Thomas Staunton. 2000 • BOOK • 10 copies available. 382(42:51)"1635/1842"
The Bounty : the true story of the mutiny on the Bounty /Caroline Alexander. More than two centuries have passed since Master's Mate Fletcher Christian mutinied against Lieutenant Bligh on a small, armed transport vessel called Bounty. Why the details of this obscure adventure at the end of the world remain vivid and enthralling is as intriguing as the truth behind the legend. In giving the Bounty mutiny its historical due, Caroline Alexander has chosen to frame her narrative by focusing on the court-martial of the ten mutineers who were captured in Tahiti and brought to justice in England. This fresh perspective revivifies the entire saga, and the salty, colorful language of the captured men themselves conjures the events of that April morning in 1789, when Christian's breakdown impelled every man on a fateful course: Bligh and his loyalists on the historic open boat voyage that revealed him to be one of history's great navigators; Christian on his restless exile; and the captured mutineers toward their day in court. As the book unfolds, each figure emerges as a full-blown character caught up in a drama that may well end on the gallows. And as Alexander shows, it was in a desperate fight to escape hanging that one of the accused defendants deliberately spun the mutiny into the myth we know today-of the tyrannical Lieutenant Bligh of the Bounty. Ultimately, Alexander concludes that the Bounty mutiny was sparked by that most unpredictable, combustible, and human of situations-the chemistry between strong personalities living in close quarters. Her account of the voyage, the trial, and the surprising fates of Bligh, Christian, and the mutineers is an epic of ambition, passion, pride, and duty at the dawn of the Romantic era. 2003. • BOOK • 3 copies available. 355.133"1789"
