English ports were closed, of course, to American shipping, and the United States could no longer trade with the British West Indies. Yet without trade, without a market for their goods, the newly independent colonies would not survive. But there was China.....In this handsome, profusely illustrated book for young readers, Alfred Tamarin and Shirley Gkubok have re-created a fascinating and exciting time in our country's early history."...dj
