Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a collection of resolutions from various commercial interests in Great Britain regarding a proposed ship canal to connect the Mediterranean and Red Seas. The book is significant for its historical value, as it provides insight into the early stages of a project that would eventually have a major impact on global trade and shipping. The volume begins with letters from the Court of East India Directors and the Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company, both of which expressed support for the project. It then presents the results of a tour by the author, M. de Lesseps, who visited major commercial centers in Great Britain to gauge public opinion on the canal. De Lesseps's speeches and the resolutions passed by the various chambers of commerce and other organizations he met with are included in the book. These resolutions overwhelmingly expressed support for the project, with many of them highlighting the potential benefits it would have for trade and shipping. The book concludes with a letter from the Manchester Chamber of Commerce, which summarized the main arguments in favor of the canal. Overall, this book provides a valuable historical record of the early stages of the Suez Canal project, as well as insights into the views of the commercial interests of Great Britain on this important infrastructure project.
