1808AQ25828London: Printed by D. N. Shury 1808. 51pp 1. Stitched as issued in original publisher's powder blue wrappers. A trifle rubbed and creased. A crisp copy in original state of the terms of the orders of council preventing neutral shipping trading with Continental Europe during the continuing hostilities of the Napoleonic Wars. By 1807 the conflict between England and France had degenerated into a war of economic retribution as each side attempted to starve the other into submission. Nelson’s victory at Trafalgar in October 1805 had given Britain mastery of the seas but Napoleon still controlled much of continental Europe. Lacking a fleet that could directly threaten Britain Napoleon implemented the Continental System a pair of decrees November 21 1806 and December 17 1807 that prohibited British trade with the Continent and threatened seizure of any neutral vessels found trading with England. The British responded by issuing the present orders of council November 11 18 and 25 and December 18 1807 that imposed a counter-blockade on Napoleonic Europe requiring non-partisan vessels to call at a British port for inspection and to pay duties and seek licenses there for trade with the enemy. In the midst of that economic vice was the neutral United States. The British embargo severely impeded American commercial activity in the Atlantic and was ultimately a primary factor in the commencement of the Anglo-American War of 1812.
