Little is known about Charles King's life. He was a regular contributor to The British Merchant, a periodical that began to be produced after the end of the War of the Spanish Succession in 1713 and argued against a proposed commercial treaty with France. King produced a collection of some of the more important articles, which was published in three volumes in 1721, also under the title The British Merchant; the work was influential. A French translation by Forbonnais, based on either the 2nd (1743) or 3rd (1748) edition, was published in 1753.
