SUAREZ RIVERA, Manuel. Gent, Basque and book merchant: Tomás Domingo de Acha, his commercial and distribution networks (1771-1814). Estud. hist. novohisp [online]. 2014, n.50, pp.125-173. ISSN 2448-6922.
The article aims to show the commercial networks of a book dealer in the last years of the fleet regime and the first decades of free trade. To do this, I use the figure of Tomás Domingo de Acha, a Basque merchant who settled in Mexico City and managed to ascend to the highest social and economic levels. The last part of the article describes precisely how brokers seeked to take charge of dispatching the boxes of books from Veracruz to Mexico City under a new trading system, though in the latter stage it's not possible to identify their Spanish networks, it is possible to observe the construction of a new distribution system from Veracruz to Mexico City.
