Recovering Scotland's Slavery Past The Caribbean Connection Edited by Tom M. Devine
The first book to strip away the myths and write the real history of Scotland’s slavery past
For more than a century and a half the real story of Scotland’s connections to transatlantic slavery has been lost to history and shrouded in myth. There was even denial that the Scots unlike the English had any significant involvement in slavery. Scotland saw itself as a pioneering abolitionist nation untainted by a slavery past.
