Summary:

This book provides a detailed calendar of the court minutes of the East India Company from 1644 to 1649, compiled by Ethel Bruce Sainsbury and annotated by William Foster. It explores the challenges faced by the Company during a turbulent period marked by civil strife, financial difficulties due to unpaid debts by the royal treasury, and the erosion of its trading monopoly. The text highlights the operational strategies employed by the Company, including the management of concurrent Joint Stock ventures and General Voyages, and the efforts to maintain control over private trade. Intended for historians, researchers, and those interested in the history of commerce and trade, the book offers insights into the economic and political dynamics of 17th-century England and the global trade environment.
