Description
Content description from WorldCat (https://www.worldcat.org/title/white-gold-black-market/oclc/31321102):
From 1650 onwards the British seized control of the seas and international trade. Opium exports from India to China financed the British East India Company's administration of India and paid for imports of tea, porcelain, and silk. This is a dramatized story of the events leading up to the Opium War, illustrating the relationships between the monopoly trading companies and the British Crown, and their determination to impose their collective will on China and its markets.
