Scots and the American Indians
As there seems to be a lot of interest in Scottish connections with the American Indians I've created this page to link to the various accounts we have on the site so they are all in one place. There are in fact many other smaller accounts contained within other accounts so it would also be well worth using our site search engine to locate these other texts.
