| - James Grant, född den 1 augusti 1822 i Edinburgh, död den 5 maj 1887 i London, var en brittisk skriftställare. Grant ägnade sig först åt militäryrket. Bland hans många romaner, till vilka ämnet vanligen är hämtat från Skottlands historia, märks Philip Rollo (1854; "Filip Rollo", 1864). Dessutom skrev han bland annat åtskilliga teologiska, historiska och kulturhistoriska arbeten, Old and New Edinburgh (3 band, 1880), som anses värdefullast, och Memoirs and Adventures of Sir John Hepburn (1851; "Konung Gustaf Adolfs skottska krigare", 1853). Grant övergick 1875 till katolska läran. (sv)

| - James Grant (1822–1887) was a Scottish novelist and miscellaneous writer. Grant was born in Edinburgh, Scotland, and was a distant relation of Sir Walter Scott. He was a prolific author, writing some 90 books, including many yellow-backs. Titles included Adventures of an Aide-de-camp, One of "The six hundred", The Scottish musketeers and The Scottish cavalier. Many of his 56 novels are about important characters and events in Scottish history. In 1853 he founded the National Association for the Vindication of Scottish Rights. Grant is known today as an historian, primarily because of his thoroughly-researched six-volume Old And New Edinburgh, published in 1880 by Cassell. (en)
