Statement Of Claims Of The British Subjects Interested In Opium: Surrendered To Captain Elliot At Canton For The Public Service is a historical document written by Selborne, Roundell Palmer in 1840. The book is a collection of claims made by British subjects who were involved in the opium trade in China.
