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 |
