The Dundas Despotism | Michael Fry | John Donald Publishers | 2004 | Henry Dundas, 1st Viscount Melville (1742-1811) and his son Robert, 2nd Viscount Melville (1771-1851) presided over what has been called the "Dundas Despotism". The father was known as the "uncrowned King of Scotland" on account of the many important government positions he occupied and his ability to manipulate so many people. His influence and powers of patronage even allowed him to determine much of what happened in India. The son took over this mantle and continued to use it for his own advantage. This biography challenges the commonly-held perceptions of these autocrats, preferring to paint them as inheritors of the ideas of the Scottish Enlightenment. | 1375 |

Scotland's Empire 1600-1815 | T.M. Devine | Penguin Books | 2004 | For its size, Scotland has had a huge influence on world affairs. The British Empire depended on the many Scots soldiers, explorers, scientists and traders who ventured to North America, the Indian subcontinent, Africa, the Caribbean and Australasia. Their exploits ensured that peoples around the world had heard of our small nation. Some of these travellers` deeds are held in high esteem; other deeds, such as involvement in the slave trade, are shameful episodes. This is the story of how the Scots played a role in empire building and how that affected Scotland. | 1431 |
