Best.-Nr. elala2079London: c1780. Later issue of one of the most important reports on the Hudson's Bay Company. The parliamentary investigation into the activities of the Hudson's Bay Company was undertaken as a result of a petition made to the Lords in Council in 1749 aimed at depriving the Company of its charter. The petitioners argued that the charter of 1670 granting sole rights of trade and commerce in the entire area beyond the entrance of the Hudson Straits was either invalid or forfeited and requested an incorporation giving them similar rights over the adjacent region. Arthur Dobbs had provided the initial stimulus and basic grounding for the petition; his was the most sustained and vociferous attack on the meanness rapacity secrecy and jealousy of the Hudson's Bay Company alleging that their policies and attitudes had thrown the fur trade into the hands of the French in Canada and were stifling the exploration of the Canadian North-West. Among the travelers traders and merchants summoned as witnesses to give testimony before the committee were Joseph Robson Matthew Serjeant Arthur Dobbs and William Moore. Appended is the Hudson's Bay Company Charter as well as the valuable narrative of French Canadian fur trader Joseph La France describing the state of the French fortresses in Montreal and Quebec and their lucrative trade with the Indians. The Papers Presented to the Committee contain information regarding voyages undertaken in search of the north-west passage sales made by the Hudson's Bay Company Henry Kelsey's journals of his attempt to open commerce with the Naywatamee Indians in 1691-92 &c. Although the impeachment failed and the monopoly was to continue for another hundred years it did alarm the Company into initiating serious and concerted exploration of the unknown western reaches of the Charter.

1646Best.-Nr. 17558London: Printed by T.W. Thomas Warren for Ed. Edward Husband 1646. FIRST EDITION. Engraved frontispiece woodcut headpieces. Contemporary calf worn especially at spine joints somewhat tender; first blank appears to be torn out leaf with frontispiece repaired some browning and soiling mostly on edges. Overall a good copy from the library of the Earls of Macclesfield with their dated 1860 bookplate motto “Sapere aude” on the paste-down and blind embossed stamp of armorial on first three leaves. First edition. In 1640 King Charles I established the Long Parliament in order to acquire funds for the Bishop’s War against the Scots. However as soon as the Long Parliament took control they began dismantling the monarchy’s authority by removing the king’s advisors and sympathizers. The orders and ordinances collected in this copy begin at this crucial moment and cover the duration of the English Civil War from 1642 to 1646. It is therefore an excellent reference source for laws and statutes during the English Civil War. It also contains several matters of Colonial interest including An Order for advancement of the Plantations in New England; An Order to make the Earl of Warwick Governor of the Plantations in America; An Ordinance against Importation of Whale-oyl; and An additional Committee for ordering Foreign Plantations among others. Wing provides the name of the printer for this copy and lists several other volumes containing records of orders over a range of years. Printed by T.W. [Thomas Warren] for Ed. [Edward] Husband unknown
