The Neutral Merchant in Relation to the Law of Contraband of War and Blockade under the Order in Council of March 11, 1915, by Francis Taylor Piggott, is an important source for those interested in the study of international law in the context of military conflicts. The author examines in detail the concept of neutrality in wartime, the peculiarities of smuggling and blockade laws, as well as the impact of government decisions and resolutions on trade and business during wartime. Thanks to the translations of the Order in Council of March 11, 1915 and other normative acts, the book reveals the key aspects that regulate the behavior of neutral subjects in wartime. By carefully researching terms and principles, the author provides the reader with a deep understanding of the complex legal issues related to trade and international law during military operations.
