Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A History of William Paterson and the Darien Company: With Illustration and Appendices The printed documents and books concerning the Darien Company and the relations to it of its projector William Paterson, while numerous, are widely scattered, and in the following pages an endeavour has been made for the first time to focus their chief information in narrative form. The story of the flotation of the ill-starred Darien Company, its multiplied disasters, and its tragic collapse, along with that of the chequered career of its projector, forms an interesting episode in Scottish history which should not be allowed to sink into oblivion. Among the numerous authorities consulted and drawn upon, the following may be particularly named: - 1. ´A Defence of the Scots Abdicating Darien; Including an Answer to the Defence of the Scots Settlement there.´ Printed in the year 1700.
