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.
