Sobre este artículo
London: Printed by Samuel Buckley, 1739. 28pp. Modern grey paper boards, contrasting brown morocco lettering-piece to spine. Leaves a trifle dusty. A pamphlet recording the articles of the Convention of El Pardo, a treaty between Great Britain and Spain designed to resolve issues regarding the freedom of the seas and ensuing smuggling operations. Delegates agreed that Britain would receive damages totalling £95,000 for harm done to vessels and crews during Spanish boardings, and that Spain be compensated in return for the nonpayment of proceeds from the Asiento - the permission given by the government to trade slaves in Spanish colonies. The convention proved exceedingly unpopular with the South Sea Company and British and Spanish merchant captains alike, and by the year's end both nations would violate the treaty, thus instigating the War of Jenkins' Ear. ESTC T4473.. First edition. Quarto.
