224 pages : illustrations, map ; 23 cm From 1823 to 1860 a fleet of small, fast brigs and schooners carried chests of opium from India to China, often facing the challenges of pirates and typhoons along the way. This shadowy trade, conducted by American, British, and Indian firms, thrived despite its moral and legal consequences. /Hunt Janin Social Sciences 382.41375 JAN 9780786493579 Brijwasi Book Distributors ;H-87,Lalita Park,Laxmi Nagar,Delhi-110092 180926 20181113110443.0
