[from back cover] The first book to strip away the myths and write the real history of Scotland's slavery past. Scotland has traditionally seen itself as a pioneering abolitionist nation untainted by slavery claims, but this is the first detailed attempt to challenge this belief. For more than a century and a half the story of Scotland's connections to transatlantic slavery has been lost to history and shrouded in myth and denial.Written by the foremost scholars in the field, and based on sustained archival research, the authors systematically peel away the mythology and radically revise the traditional picture. Topics include national amnesia and slavery, the impact of profits from slavery on Scotland, Scots in the Caribbean sugar islands, compensation paid to Scottish owners when slavery was abolished, domestic controversies on the slave trade, and the role of Scots in slave trading from English ports. Appealing not only to scholars and students, but to all readers interested in discovering an untold aspect of Scotland's past, this important and original collection contains many surprising and uncomfortable conclusions. It is a major contribution to Scottish history and to the history of slavery within the British Empire.
