Based chiefly on unpublished material from the P & O archives and the National Archives, and on contemporary official publications, the book covers the crucial period from the company's origins to 1867. After presenting new findings about the company's origins in the Irish transport industry, the book charts the extension of the founders' interests from the Iberian peninsula to the Mediterranean, India, China and Australia. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 610 20 Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n82116644|xHistory.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99005024 610 20 Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n82116644|xPolitical activity.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh2002011434 610 24 Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company. 610 27 Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company.|2fast |0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/572000 648 7 19th century|2fast 648 7 1800 - 1899|2fast 650 0 Public contracts|zGreat Britain|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2010108822|xHistory|y19th century. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2002006167 650 0 Shipping|zGreat Britain|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh2008111626|xColonies.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh99005254 650 0 Ocean liners|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85093891|zGreat Britain|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/n79023147-781|xHistory.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh99005024 650 0 Ocean travel|xHistory|y19th century.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2010104210 650 0 Imperialism|xHistory.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh2008104311 650 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/958235 650 7 Political participation.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/1069386 650 7 Public contracts.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1082170 650 7 Shipping.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1116352 650 7 Colonies.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/868456 650 7 Ocean liners.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1043530 650 7 Ocean travel.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1043585 650 7 Imperialism.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/968126 650 7 Commerce.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/869279 651 0 Great Britain|xColonies|xCommerce.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85056635 651 7 Great Britain.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1204623 655 0 Electronic books. 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 700 1 Palmer, Sarah.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n82109611 700 1 Harcourt, Edward.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n00087693 776 08 |iPrint version:|aHarcourt, Freda.|tFlagships of imperialism.|dManchester : Manchester University Press, 2006|z9780719073939|w(OCoLC)64555179 830 0 Studies in imperialism.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/no97079927 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=515046|zOnline eBook.
