Hard Back. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. Edwards, Walter Meayers (illustrator). 203 pages indexed. Map endpapers. Brown cloth boards with dark brown lettering and decorated cover. Almost every page is illustrated with color drawings, paintings and photographs. To the wild and unknown shores of a new world, came Europe's adventurers and dispossessed, saints and sinners, farmers and traders, poor hoping to get rich, and rich hoping to get richer. The people who followed Columbus were ill-equipped to start new lifes on a continent whose hazards and dimensions they knew only vaguely. A century of trial, often ending in failure, gave them experience in settling the newfound land. Contents in Ten Chapters: Island Triumphs, Bloody Florida, Settlers for a Season, Holding on in Virginia and Canada, Pious Plymouth, Lords Bretheren and Lords Calvert, Struggle Over Land, OUtposts and Missjions and Fur Posts on the Pacific.
