A New Voyage to Carolina

Více o knize

The narrative follows Lawson, a naturalist and explorer who journeyed over 600 miles through the Carolinas in 1700, documenting his observations of the local Indian tribes and the rich natural environment. His meticulous notes provide a vivid account of the region's landscape and cultures. Tragically, during a subsequent expedition, he was captured and killed, an event that escalated tensions and contributed to the outbreak of the Tuscarora War. His experiences highlight both the beauty and the conflict of early colonial encounters.
