This is the first short history of the East India Company from its
founding in 1600 to its demise in 1857, designed for students and
academics. The Company was central to the growth of the British
Empire in India, to the development of overseas trade, and to the
rise of shareholder capitalism, so this survey will be essential
reading for imperial and economic historians and historians of Asia
alike. It stresses the neglected early years of the Company, and
its intimate relationship with (and impact upon) the domestic
British scene.
