Trade and Empire in Western India（ISBN=9780521053242） epub 下载 pdf 网盘 2025 mobi 在线 免费

　　This study examines the influence of commercial interests on

the expansion of the British Empire in Western India in the age of

Cornwallis and Wellesley. It questions some of the assumptions

which have been accepted as explanations of British imperialism in

that part of India. The chief of these is that the reform of the

East India Company's administration in the 1780s brought the policy

of the Bombay presidency under the firm control of the

governor-general in Bengal and of the Court of Directors and the

Board of Control in London.
