Listening to the BBC radio drama "Exile" that commemorates the 400th anniversary of the sailing of the Mayflower, I'm gripped by this tale of refugees who fled violence and took the only lifeline they had — an offer from venture capitalists trying to save their failing colonial endeavor.
Historians— what's a good history of the finance behind European colonialism? I'm looking at Gardner & Roy's "Economic History of Colonialism" — what else is a reliable source?
