Around 1600, the Fellowship of Merchant Adventurers was England's most important trading company. This history shows how, as the broader trading landscape changed, the Company declined, but also looks at the members of the Company as active participants in the changes to the social, commercial, and political landscape.

Thomas Leng has worked in the History Department at The University of Sheffield since 2005. His first book, Benjamin Worsley (1618-1677): Trade, Interest, and the Spirit in Revolutionary England (Royal Historical Society Studies in History, 2008), provoked his interest in the social and institutional history of the trading company known as the Fellowship of Merchant Adventurers. He has also published on early modern economic thought, colonization, and the politics of civil war England.
