Fascinating Primary Sources on the French Colony in Florida
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
This book contains the manuscripts of Rene Laudonniere describing French attempts to explore and colonize what are now Florida, Georgia and South Carolina in the 1560s. Edited and translated by Congressman Charles E. Bennett, "Three Voyages" covers the failed attempt to secure this region for France. Laudonniere was not the most memorable of writers but this book touches on Native American life, religious conflict and the various jockeying for position as Spain and France looked to secure this important part of the New World.
