The Tea Industry in India: A Review of Finance and Labour, and a Guide for Capitalists and Assistants (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The Tea Industry in India: A Review of Finance and Labour, and a Guide for Capitalists and Assistants

The mison detre of any book ought to be that there is room for it, and also that it is needed. It is in such a belief that I have again ventured to seek the patronage of those interested in the Indian tea industry; and I may say that the belief rested, in the first place, on the representation of a firm of London tea-brokers, that such a book as I have now written would be of use at the present time. Thinking over the remarks made in this regard, I found that a wide field was open to me one that, so far as I was aware, had not been opened up, and which, from the Indian side, it seemed to me, could not very well be opened.
