East India Company.- [Colquhoun (Patrick)] Observa and the National Loss occasioned by the Importation of the same Species of Cotton Goods which can be manufactured in Great Britain first edition 20pp. including appendix drop-head title soiled and stained at edges ex-library copy with small ink stamp at foot of first and last leaves disbound preserved in modern marbled wrappers [Goldsmiths` 13572 without appendix; Kress B.1463] 4to n.p. [1788]. *** Rare pamphlet and one of the earliest by Colquhoun. His interest in the cotton trade was no doubt stimulated by his stay in Virginia which he visited as a boy aged sixteen. It describes the increased demand for cotton resulting from industrialisation by British manufacturers. The main subject is trade between India and Great Britain and suggestions for increasing the profitability of the East India Company. The importance of this Company Colquhoun argues can hardly be overestimated: “The affairs of India have grown to such a magnitude as to shake the very pillars of the state. The whole interests of the British Empire are affected by the operations of this commercial body.”
