Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Opium Crisis: A Letter, Addressed to Charles Elliot, Esq., Chief Superintendent of the British Trade With China Dear Sir, The very frank way in which you have often permitted and invited me to compare opinions with you on passing affairs, induces me to lay before you, in this form, my view of the opium crisis. In doing this, I will not go back beyond the close of 1836, when I first had the pleasure to meet you in China. I had scarcely assumed the direction of my mercantile affairs (after an absence of nearly four years) when the position and prospects of the opium trade forced themselves upon me. Happily, the wise and Christian guardianship under which I first visited the East, when a mere boy, had supplied the place of unformed principle, and kept me aloof from the seductive traffic.
