Bogardus, Guillermo

La Compañia Nacional Y Thompson Bonar Y Ca, Consignatarios Del Guano En Inglaterra Y Agentes Financieros Del Peru En Londres. Dedicado Al Público Y Muy Especialmente a Los Diputados Al Congreso de la Restauración

Lima, Imprenta Liberal, 1866. First edition. Paper wrappers. 37 pp. 12mo. Guillermo Bogardus, a businessman and politician, protested the awarding of a contract for Guano to the newly formed Compania Nacional, charging that the contract was illegal and "that congress should void it and prosecute the new contractors for abuses against the state's interests. Moreover [he] argued that these national contractors formed a greedy circle that had betrayed the spirit of an 1849 legal principle granting preference to Peruvian nationals.." (Quiroz: "Corrupt Circles, John Hopkins, 2008, p. 121.) He would go on to haunt the national capitalists for another decade. Provenance: Francisco Pérez de Velasco, his stamp, former Peruvian Consul to New York, a dealer, who sold to Hiram Bingham an "unprecedented cache of.. [very early colonial Peruvian].. documents and whose remaining collection on Peru was in "Cátalogo de la Biblioteca Peruana Propiedad de Dn. Francisco Perez de Velasco" Lima, 1918.
