Excerpt from The British Board of Trade: A Study of Its Influence in Colonial Administration, With Special Reference to New York, 1696-1754 The restoration of Charles II marks the beginning of attempts at systematic control of England's valuable colonial possession The preceeding half century had been a period of experimentation. Enslish statesmen were only beginning to grasp the full importance of colonial empire.
