[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.

Hardcover. Etat : Near Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Very Good Plus. First Edition. 1990. ix,139pp. "Between the early eighteenth and the middle decades of the nineteenth century, Scottish society was transformed by industrialization, urbanization and major changes in agriculture and rural society. The rate of town and city growth… was among the fastest in western Europe, migration and emigration accelerated and the traditional way of life in the Highland and Lowland countryside was brought to an end through the pressures of market demand and landlord strategy. Such a major upheaval created increased social tension. Conflict and Stability in Scottish Society challenges the previously accepted view that this major upheaval in Scottish life did not stimulate much unrest and that a modern industrial society developed relatively smoothly. The papers here, given at the Scottish Historical Studies Seminar at Strathclyde University in 1988-89, suggest that protest was more common, more enduring and more diverse than is usually supposed." Some sunning to spine of dust jacket. Book and jacket are in excellent condition with no inscriptions, and all contents are tight and clean. Presentation slip from the publishertipped in to half title page. (presented to Stana Nenadic, one of the contributors).
