Defying Empire - Trading With the Enemy in Colonial New York

Ignoring British prohibitions designed to end North America's wartime trade with the French, New York's merchant elite conducted a business in the French West Indies. This book uncovers the story of New York City merchants who engaged in forbidden trade with the enemy before and during the Seven Years' War (also called the French and Indian War).
