Chapters in the collection engage with this legacy across three sections: Dispossession and Settlement; Religion and Identity; and Reappraising Memory. Showcasing research from both new and established scholars from Canada, the UK and the United States, the collection challenges the established historiography of the region and brings groups who have traditionally been excluded from Britain's broader imperial narrative into sharper focus. Key Features Situates the Scottish experience within the process of British colonisation, challenging the tendency to omit the Scots from critical explorations of the colonisation process in this region. Highlights the Indigenous experience, as well as the experience of the enslaved, free people of colour and religious minorities.
