The Thistle and the Jade A Celebration of 175 Years of Jardine Matheson

Founded in Canton in 1832, Jardine Matheson has grown, principally from bases in the East, to become an international trading house with business interests throughout the world. The Thistle and The Jade assembles contributions from leading historians, old Jardine hands, and figures from the more recent history of the firm, to chronicle how this happened.
