{"product_id":"global-migrations-angela-mccarthy-9781474429320","title":"Global Migrations: The Scottish Diaspora Since 1600","description":"\u003cp\u003eFrom the seventeenth century to the current day, more than 2.5 million Scots have sought new lives elsewhere. 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. It spans diverse destinations including Europe, the USA, Canada, New Zealand, Australia, South Africa, Ceylon (now Sri Lanka), Hong Kong, Guyana and the British World more broadly. A key objective is to consider whether the Scottish factor mattered.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Angela McCarthy\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1474429327\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781474429320\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Edinburgh University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/17\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 304\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.05lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.10w x 0.70d","brand":"Angela McCarthy","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43935512035583,"sku":"9781474429320","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_ca7112ec-3c1c-432e-9f18-197cc4abadb9.jpg?v=1681420225","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/global-migrations-angela-mccarthy-9781474429320","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
