Excerpt from The Romance of Modern Commerce: A Popular Account of the Production of Cereals, Tea, Coffee, Rubber, Tobacco, Cotton, Silk, Wool, Timber, Cattle, Oils, Furs, Precious Stones, &C. &C. &C In the later internal struggles in Britain for liberty and 'progress it was the commercial class in the towns which decided the victory. On the Continent also the in uence of commerce was so great that prominent ports and cities were able to throw off allegiance to kings, princes and emperors and establish themselves as independent municipalities or states, while forming international alliances like the Hanseatic League. In commerce the German emperors found a grave and modern citizenship a cradle. Co-operation as well as con ict and competition have played important parts in the Romance Of Com merce. The merchant and craft guilds brought peoples Of all sorts and conditions together by means of a new bond of interest instead Of the Old bond of blood. They opened their gates to the runaway serf and decreed that residence within a guild for a year and a day made a man free. They did more. They raised the standard of handicraft by insisting on good work; and their in uence caused special Offices and dignities to be conferred upon merchants who conducted com merce with other peoples successfully. The celebrated Hanseatic League, one Of the greatest achievements of commerce, stands out conspicuously in the Middle Ages, because, amid robbery, rapine and internecine warfare of the feudal nobility, and between empire and papacy, it was able to hold aloof from all and act as a court Of arbitration for con icting interests.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
