Excerpt from Scottish Colonial Schemes, 1620-1686 For many a year the call of the West, the summons to the new lands beyond the Atlantic, evoked from Scotland no response the lure of strange landfalls, the wonders and the wealth of the great New Continent, failed to stir the imagina tion either of the douce traders north of the Tweed, or of adventurous wanderers setting out from the shores of Scotland. In Danzic or in Campvere the Scottish merchant still drove his trade, ignorant of, or indifferent to, the fabled riches of the New World: on the banks of the Seine, or amid the polders of the Netherlands, the Scottish soldier of fortune still sought an employer for his sword.

Excerpt from The Scottish Staple at Veere: A Study in the Economic History of Scotland David I. (1124 we are informed, established towns and invited foreign traders to settle in them. During the twelfth and thirteenth centuries the Flemish settlements, re inforced in this way, acquired considerable importance. They were not confined to any one part of Scotland, though naturally it was chiefly on the East coast that the Flemings found a resting-place. Berwick they contributed to make one of the greatest commercial towns of the age. They were found thickly settled in Fife and Forfarshire, and Aberdeenshire was particularly distinguished for its colonies of Flemings, and even as far north as Inverness their industry left its mark on Scottish history.

Excerpt from The Scotch-Irish or the Scot in North Britain, North Ireland, and North America, Vol. 1 Hese volumes are designed to serve as an introduction to a series of Historical Collections which the writer expects hereafter to publish, relating to the early scotch-irish settlements in America. They are not in tended as a history of the scotch-irish people, for such a work would require more time and labor than have been expended upon the present undertaking. The subject is one, like that of the history of America itself, which must wait for some future gifted historian; but unlike the subject of American history in general, it is also one concerning which no comprehensive treat ment has ever been attempted. Such being the case, in order to enable the reader to understand the relation of the scotch-irish to American history, it has seemed necessary to make a brief general survey of the origin and old-world history of the race to which the scotch-irish belong. In doing this, it has not been his purpose to attempt even an outline sketch of the history of Scotland, but merely to condense and connect the record of its most important events, and indicate some of the principal writers upon different aspects of its history. The fact is, that the lack of acquaintance of many native-born Americans with the details of Scottish history is such that they require an elemen tary grounding even in the annals of its most noteworthy events. Such a primer the writer has undertaken to prepare. In doing so, he has found it advisable to compile, epitomize, and consolidate a number of the most compact of the sketches of Scottish history which have appeared in Great Britain, using for this purpose the writings of William F. Skene and of E. William Robertson, the Annals of Lord Hailes, the brief history of Mack intosh and, for the topographical and ethnographical description of Scot land of the present day, the works of the French geographer and traveller, J. J. E. Reclus, of which an edition in English has been published by Messrs. D. Appleton Company. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from A Short History of the Scottish Highlands and Isles A short history should have a brief Preface, and a few words will suffice to explain the purpose and scope of the present work. No complete history of the Highlands, issued at a popular price and in a compact form, has yet been published. It is believed that a book of that description will serve a purpose which the existing histories do not claim to fulfil, and will appeal to a considerable body of readers whom the larger and more expensive works on the subject fail to reach. In that belief, and with that object, the present volume has been written. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Scotland's Mark on America It has been said that the Scot is never so much at home as when he is abroad. Under this half-jesting reference to one of the character istics of our race, there abides a sober truth, namely, that the Scots man carries with him from his parent home into the world without no half-hearted acceptance of the duties required of him in the land of his adoption. He is usually a public - spirited citizen, a useful member of society, wherever you find him. But that does not lessen the warmth of his attachment to the place of his birth, or the land of his forbears. Be his connection with Scotland near or remote, there is enshrined in the inner sanctuary of his heart, memories, sentiments, yearnings, that are the heritage of generations with whom love of their country was a dominant passion, and pride in the deeds that her children have done an incentive to effort and an antidote against all that was base or ignoble. It is a fact that goes to the core of the secular struggle for human freedom that whole-hearted Americanism finds no jarring note in the sentiment of the Scot, be that sentiment ever so intense. In the sedulous cultivation of the Scottish spirit there is nothing alien, and, still more emphatically, nothing harmful, to the institutions under which we live. The things that nourish the one, engender attachment and loyalty to the other. So, as we cherish the memories of the Moth erland, keep in touch with the simple annals of our Childhood's home, or the home of our kin, bask in the fireside glow of its homely humor, or dwell in imagination amid the haunts of old romance, we are the better Americans for the Scottish heritage from which heart and mind alike derive inspiration and delight.

Excerpt from Royal Letters, Charters, and Tracts, Relating to the Colonization of New Scotland, and the Institution of the Order of Knight Baronets of Nova Scotia, 1621-1638 I afterwards obtained for the Club transcripts of such papers from this great repository as seemed to be particularly suited for the present volume. But my hands being full of other work for the Club when it was drawing to a termination, this particular volume it was thought might be reserved for the last of the series, to be completed either in a larger or in a more restricted form, according to the means that should remain at the disposal of the Committee. Latterly, . It became sufficiently evident that there would be no surplus funds to carry out the original design to its full extent. Had it even been otherwise, the anxious desire to bring the affairs of the Club to a speedy close would have kept me from interposing any protracted delay in completing the Volume. I have, however, along with notices of the authors of the Tracts, given a very c0pious selection of all the original letters, and Acts of Privy Council which appeared to be of importance, without enlarging either on the subject of Nova Scotia Baronets, or attempting to prepare any detailed account of this unsuccessful episode of Scottish enterprise.

Excerpt from Pioneers the Old South: A Chronicle of English Colonial Beginnings Elizabeth of England died in 1603. There came to the English throne James Stuart, King of Scot land, King now oi England and Scotland. In 1604! A treaty of peace ended the long war with Spain. Gone was the sixteenth century; here, though in childhood, was the seventeenth century. Now that the wars were over, old colonization schemes were revived in the English mind. Of the motives which in the first instance had prompted these schemes, some with the passing of time had become weaker, some remained quite as strong as before. Most Englishmen and women knew now that Spain had clay feet; and that Rome, though she might threaten, could not always perform what she threatened. To abase the pride of Spain.
