Excerpt from A Brief Introduction to Commercial Geography: Being a Handbook of the Commercial Relationships of Great Britain, the Colonies and the United States
In this little book, which is intended entirely as an introduction to a great subject, the technical terms of commerce have been carefully avoided. What has been aimed at is a readable and broadly suggestive account of the present conditions and the future possibilities of the commerce of our great empire, rather than a statistical statement, in which the grander and more in spiring apprehension of the vast movements of commerce would have been lost.
In confining the attention to the commerce of the British Empire and the United States, it was felt that greater clearness and point would be given to the exposition of principles, than if more had been attempted. The British Empire and the United States are the chief commercial countries of the world. We, as a nation, do a larger business with the United States than with any other country; and, as part of the great anglo-saxon trading community, the United States is in commerce, as in blood, closely knit to the Mother Country and her colonies properly so called.
