Publisher's Synopsis

""A Vindication of England's Policy with Regard to the Opium Trade"" is a book written by Charles Reginald Haines in 1884. The book is an argument in defense of England's opium trade with China, which had been heavily criticized by many at the time. Haines argues that the opium trade is a legitimate business practice and that England has every right to engage in it. He also claims that the opium trade is beneficial to both England and China, as it provides a valuable commodity to the Chinese people and generates significant revenue for the British economy. The book provides a detailed history of the opium trade and its impact on both countries, as well as a defense of the British government's policies regarding the trade. Overall, ""A Vindication of England's Policy with Regard to the Opium Trade"" is a fascinating historical document that sheds light on a controversial and complex issue in British-Chinese relations.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
