If one had looked for a potential global city in Europe in the 1540s, the most likely candidate would have been Antwerp. Using his discovery of a network of Chinese merchant shipping routes on John Selden's map of China, the author reveals how London also flourished because of its encounters, engagements, and exchanges with East Asian cities.
