  Part of his trilogy on Scottish history, T. M. Devine's To the Ends of the Earth is a compelling account of the Scots as a "global people," charting their forgotten role in the building of the modern world. 
   
   
   
  The Scots are one of the world's greatest nations of emigrants. For centuries, untold numbers of men, women, and children sought their fortunes in every part of the globe, from the British Empire to the United States, in cities and on prairie farms, as traders, bankers, missionaries, soldiers, politicians, and engineers. With To the Ends of the Earth T. M. Devine—acclaimed author of The Scottish Nation and Scotland's Empire—puts this extraordinary epic center stage in Scottish history, cutting through myth and sentiment surrounding stories such as the Highland Clearances and the Enlightenment to show the true impact of Scottish emigration on the world, and on the nation it left behind.

  "This memoir's reward is insights shared by a man honest with himself and his strengths and limitations in a way that is compelling, actually quietly fascinating." -- Jay Levin, Founder of LA Weekly newspaper 
  Having it all can leave you with nothing.  
  At the height of the Dot-com Boom on Wall St., Matthew Spaur used his earnings from the tech industry to remarry, become a stepparent to three boys, and start a weekly newspaper--all at the same time. Overnight, he became a self-employed working parent with a new business in a cutthroat market. He did this despite having never owned a business, worked on a newspaper, taken a journalism class, sold advertising, or been a parent.  
  Soon, the tech stock bubble burst, the 9/11 attacks exploded, and the country slid into recession and then war. Media outlets started receiving envelopes of anthrax in their mail. The internet revolution began to obliterate the newspaper industry. At home, his new wife and two of his step-sons developed life-threatening illnesses.  
  What do you do when your fortune goes from bad to worse?
