Global Trade and Commercial Networks (eBook, ePUB)

Eighteenth-Century Diamond Merchants

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

At the heart of this study on cross-cultural trade lies a concrete case-study of a network of diamond merchants operating in the early eighteenth century. All the traders examined in this study are outsiders: an English Catholic in Antwerp, Sephardic and Ashkenazi Jews in London and Amsterdam and French Huguenots in Lisbon.
