- This work, authored by Ethel Bruce Sainsbury with contributions by William Foster, chronicles the court minutes of the East India Company from 1660 to 1663. It provides a detailed account of the company's trade activities, management decisions, and challenges during a period of political and economic uncertainty following the English Restoration. The book highlights the company's operations, including shipping ventures, commodity trade, interactions with private merchants, and the impact of external factors such as wars and political instability. It also documents the company's relations with the monarchy, including symbolic gestures of loyalty to King Charles II, and the strategic decisions made to sustain trade despite adverse conditions. Intended for historians, researchers, and those interested in the history of commerce and colonialism, the book serves as an invaluable resource for understanding the early modern global trade and the workings of one of the world's most influential corporations.
