British Letter Mail to Overseas Destinations 1840 to UPU
The present work covers the rates, routes and regulations concerned with the dispatch of British letters to overseas destinations from 1840 when Rowland Hill’s new scheme for cheap postage became a reality until after the adoption of the Universal Postal Union Treaty.
It seeks to give an insight into the conventions , shipping contracts and arrangements negotiated between the many different administrations and to explain some of the complications and difficulties with which the postal staff and shipping companies had to contend before simplification took place.
