The Price of Scotland covers a well-known episode in Scottish
history, the ill-fated Darien Scheme. It recounts for the first
time in almost forty years, the history of the Company of Scotland,
looking at previously unexamined evidence and considering the
failure in light of the Company's financial records. Douglas Watt
offers the reader a new way of looking at this key moment in
history, from the attempt to raise capital in London in 1695
through to the shareholder bail-out as part of the Treaty of Union
in 1707. With the tercentenary of the Union in May 2007, The Price
of Scotland provides a timely reassessment of this national
disaster.
