A New Andalucia and a Way to the Orient: The American Southeast During the Sixteenth Century

Description

Paul E. Hoffman’s groundbreaking book specializes in a neglected house of colonial history—southeastern North The us right through the sixteenth-century. Hoffman describes expeditions to the region, efforts at colonization, and rivalries between the French, Spanish, and English. He unearths the techniques by which the explorers’ expectations—fueled by legends—crumbled within the face of difficulties encountered along the southeastern coast. The primary book to link the earliest voyages with the explorations of the sixteenth century and the settlement of later colonies, Hoffman’s work is a very powerful reassessment of southern colonial history.
