By Richard LeBaron Bowen

A short booklet, Godfrey Malbone's Armorial Silver, provides data on the Malbone family of Newport, Rhode Island. He made a fortune in the West Indies trade and in privateering King George's War (1739-1748) and at the height of his career was probably the richest man in Newport. This important book gives detailed accounts of the early triangle trade.
