Drawing on an impressive range of archival material, this monograph
delves into the careers of two businessmen who worked for Nordic
chartered monopoly trading companies to illuminate individual
entrepreneurship in the context of seventeenth-century
long-distance trade. The study spans the Caribbean to the Indian
Ocean, examining global entanglements through personal interactions
and daily trading activities between Europeans, Asian merchants and
African brokers. It makes an important contribution to our
understanding of the role of individuals and their networks within
the great European trading companies of the early modern period.
This unique book will be of interest to advanced students and
researchers of economic history, business history, early modern
global history and entrepreneurship.
