Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book examines the Orkney Islands off the northern coast of Scotland and discusses how they could be better utilized for trade to aid economic development. The author argues that with their highly strategic position between numerous Northern Kingdoms, this region could be a significant trading center but remains vastly underdeveloped. Fishing is also highlighted as an industry with untapped potential. The historical and economic landscape of the islands is carefully described to provide context and support the author's proposals. This book will be of interest to both historians and policymakers interested in economic development and the hidden potential for advancement within specific regions. Its insights into the factors affecting growth in established yet underdeveloped communities make it a worthwhile read.
