- Description
- A comprehensive academic study by J. R. Dickinson examining Manx maritime commerce across nearly two centuries, with particular emphasis on the evolution from legitimate primary product exports (cattle, hides, fish) to the illicit running trade in the 17th–18th centuries. Uses waterbailiff customs accounts and comparative English/Irish port records to trace trade patterns, duty structures, and the commercial context leading to the 1765 Revestment.
