Biographical History

The British East India Company was founded around 1600 in order to control British trade, especially in spices, from India, China, and neighboring regions. Initially, the company held a monopoly on such activities and both exploited and expanded British colonial power, by acting as an agent to the Crown from the early eighteenth century to the mid-nineteenth century.

From the description of British East India Company records, 1821-1853 (inclusive), 1821-1839 (bulk). (Unknown). WorldCat record id: 702168415
