Summary After the Battle of Plassey in 1757, English traders became heavily involved in the opium trade. It constituted a large portion of their business, with the primary importers being Chinese. This text chronicles the struggles of English merchants who dealt in opium after it became illegal. The Rise and Progress of British Opium Smuggling should be considered an invaluable resource for scholars of English trade and Chinese culture in the 19th century.
