The Scottish Pioneers of Upper Canada,

"Upper Canada's first major Scottish settlement, Glengarry, was established in 1784 by Highlanders from Inverness-shire. Worsening economic conditions in Scotland, coupled with an increasing awareness of Upper Canada's opportunities, led to a growing tide of emigration. While individual settlements have been well observed, the overall picture has never been pieced together. Drawing on new and wide-ranging sources, Lucille H. Campey charts the progress of Scottish settlement throughout Upper Canada. This book contains much descriptive information, including all known passenger lists, and gives details of the 550 ships that made over 900 crossings and carried almost 100,000 emigrant Scots."--BOOK JACKET.
