N L Hallward | Akateeminen Kirjakauppa

Originally published in 1920, this book contains a biography of William Bolts, one of 'the most remarkable civilian adventurers of the eighteenth century in the territories of the East India Company'. Hallward paints a vivid picture of Bolts as one of the many destabilising European agents operating in the Far East at a time of great colonial tension as well as a shrewd merchant. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in colonial India and European expansionism.
