It highlights the roles of cooperation and competition in shaping the relations between these and other European companies as well as the everyday lives of European merchants and mariners. The edition thus sheds new light on the history of the East Indies trade during the eighteenth century and its role in encouraging early modern globalization. 606 $aDiaries$xHistory 606 $aOcean travel 606 $aTrade routes$zChina 606 $aTrade routes$zEurope 606 $aHISTORY / Modern / 18th Century$2bisacsh 607 $aGuangzhou (China)$xCommerce$zEurope$xHistory$vSources 607 $aEurope$xCommerce$zChina$zGuangzhou$xHistory$vSources 607 $aEurope$xCommerce$zChina$zGuangzhou$xHistory$y18th century 607 $aGuangzhou (China)$xCommerce$zEurope$xHistory$y18th century 615 0$aDiaries$xHistory. 615 0$aOcean travel. 615 0$aTrade routes 615 0$aTrade routes 615 7$aHISTORY / Modern / 18th Century. 676 $a337.51275 686 $aNW 3200$2rvk 702 $aKessler$b Marlene 702 $aLee$b Kristin 702 $aMenning$b Daniel 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910798432803321 996 $aThe European Canton trade 1723$93742959 997 $aUNINA
