Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - A historical study of the Scots who travelled to the Dutch East Indies to make their fortune.Scotland's diaspora, reframed through the Dutch East Indies: the intertwined lives of Highland lairds, Islay farmers and metropolitan merchants who built fortunes, and families, on the island of Java.A vivid group portrait of Scots who embedded themselves in the Dutch colonial world. Centering on the Batavia firm of Maclaine Watson & Co., G. Roger Knight draws on letters, newspapers, government and family archives to trace how sugar, trade and marriage created trans-imperial networks from Mull and Islay to Java, Singapore, the Low Countries and Australia. A fresh, unromantic, sharply observed study of Scottish ambition, mobility and identity across imperial bounds in the long-nineteenth century.From masked balls in Batavia to deer-stalking on Mull, Kin, Kilts and Kolonie follows Scots who made their lives and livelihoods within another European empire. At its heart stands Maclaine Watson & Co., a Batavia merchant house linking Highland clans, Scots 'glocalisers', and trans-imperial merchants, in a web of kin, capital and commerce.Through families such as the Maclaines, McNeills, Frasers and McLachlans, Knight charts the fortunes of sojourners - men and women who set out to return home richer, and largely did - leaving descendants and investments across Asia, Europe and the Antipodes. Blending intimate biography with incisive economic history, Knight shows how wealth, power and marriage shaped both the Dutch colony and the Scots who thrived within it. Erudite, humane and unsparing, Knight reveals how Scotland's imperial fortunes were forged far from home - and how their legacies endured long after the ships returned. …
