Global Goods and the Country House: Comparative perspectives, 1650-1800 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781800083844)

Global goods - Indian
textiles, Chinese porcelain -
were central to the material culture of 18th-century country houses. They tied
wealthy property owners in Europe, America and Asia into global systems of
supply and the processes of empire. This book offers fresh insights into the
multi-directional flow of goods and culture of the time.
