Book synopsis

The Scottish Diaspora since 1600. From the seventeenth century to the current day, more than 2.5 million Scots have sought new lives in Europe, the USA, Canada, New Zealand, Australia, South Africa, Ceylon now Sri Lanka, Hong Kong and Guyana. This book of essays from established and emerging scholars examines the impact since 1600 of out migration from Scotland on the homeland, the migrants and the destinations in which they settled, and their descendants and affinity Scots. It does so through a focus on the under-researched themes of slavery, cross-cultural encounters, economics, war, tourism and the modern diaspora since 1945.
