Besprekingen

This short book by Tirthankar Roy is interesting in that it presents us with a few different aspects of the East India Company. The focus is on the company's founding and its transnational nature. He also highlights aspects of its internal conflict, such as company management and how it allowed individuals to practice private trade.
