More has been written about smugglers than merchants in eighteenth century Cornwall. Yet Cornish merchants led and organised Cornwall's eighteenth century trade including smuggling. This book places Cornwall's merchants in the context of their social and family relationships, commerce and credit, politics, communications, know-how, culture, and faiths. It is a story of women as well as men. It looks at Cornwall's participation in transatlantic trade including the eighteenth century slave trade.
