Dr. Andrew Turnbull and the New Smyrna Colony of Florida (Paperback, Expanded Editn)

When East Florida was ceded to England by Spain in 1763, Scottish physician, Dr. Andrew Turnbull, recruited over 1,400 Mediterranean colonists to establish the agricultural colony he named "Smyrnea." Carita Doggett recounts that not only did the growing conditions prove less than ideal but how seemingly every imaginable calamity befell the colony before it failed in 1777. This new edition includes over 100 added pages of original correspondence between Andrew Turnbull and others involved with his Smyrnea venture.
