This publication provides a comprehensive account of the Scottish Colonial Schemes that took place between the years 1620 and 1686. Delving into the various attempts made by the Scottish to establish colonies in North America during this period, each chapter details different colonial ventures as the author discusses various motives behind Scottish emigration and the influence of military and economic trends. Despite their failure to establish a Scottish colony in the Americas, these early attempts played a significant role in shaping the country's future endeavors in the New World. From the motivations behind the schemes to the challenges faced by the colonists, this volume provides an insightful look at Scotland's attempts at colonization.

Along with an index arranged alphabetically by subject or surname, the author concludes this work with six appendices providing records from the French protest against the Scottish expedition of 1623, the date of settlement of Scots at Port Royal in Acadie, "A note of all suche things as the company hath in Canada", Barbados correspondence concerning Scottish settlers, Broadside by Robert Barclay, letters from Scot of Pitlochie's "model", and proposals by Walter Gibson.
