James Grahame (1790-1842) was Scottish historian. He studied at the universities of Glasgow and Cambridge. He was called to the Bar in Scotland in 1812 but ill health prevented him from pursuing a career in law and he turned to the study of history.

Grahame's works on the American History initially had little impact in the United States but eventually their merit was recognized. Josiah Quincy published 'The Memory of the Late James Grahame, the Historian of the United States, Vindicated from the Charges of Mr Bancroft' (1846).
