Title: The Letters of Gracchus on the East India Question. Vol. I. Pam. No. II. 2o
Description: London, Pamphleteer, 1813. First edition. Disbound. [575-636] pp. 8vo. These letters concerning the renewal of the East India Company's charter appeared in the Morning Post. "The impartial Reader will find in them a strong determination, to uphold the public rights of the Country, with respect to the India Trade; but he will not discover any evidence of a desire to lower the just, and well-earned honours, of the East India Company, nor any symptom of a disposition hostile to their fair pretensions," (from the Advertisement). The Charter Act of 1813 deprived the Company of its monopoly and asserted British sovereignty over the territories. Removed from a larger volume else a very good clean copy .
