This marks the third volume (and fourth part) in a series on Scottish colonial soldiers compiled by emigration authority David Dobson. (The first volume was published as two parts in one.) Working from various burgess rolls, the Calendar of Home Office Papers, the Nova Scotia Archives, and published sources such as Blackwood's Magazine, the Caledonian Mercury, and the Dictionary of Canadian Biography, Dr. Dobson has uncovered information on an additional 1,000 Scottish colonial solders not found in his earlier books in this series.
