註釋"Paul E. Hoffman's book focuses on a neglected area of colonial history - southeastern North America during the sixteenth century. Hoffman describes expeditions to the region, efforts at colonization, and rivalries between the French, Spanish, and English. He reveals the ways in which the explorers' expectations - fueled by legends - crumbled in the face of difficulties encountered along the southeastern coast. The first book to link the earliest voyages with the explorations of the sixteenth century and the settlement of later colonies, Hoffman's work is an important reassessment of southern colonial history."--BOOK JACKET.
