This Land is My Land is a historical fictional story about the life
and adventures of the soldiers, artisans, and clergy under the
leadership of Hidalgo Don Hernando De Soto beginning in the year of
1538 and coming to a tiring end in 1542.The theme illustrates the
difficulty of men and women in the first exploration of La Florida
and its damaging effects to new lands and the indigenous people who
had founded the land many years earlier. It elaborates how
exploration is irresistible to human beings and will always have
its good and bad outcomes. They begin with about seven hundred and
fifty men and women of various cultural and ethnic backgrounds,
mostly Portuguese and Spaniard. The route of exploration went
through Cuba, 10 states and Mexico ending with about two hundred
and twenty-six survivors. The protagonist is the gold and
land-seeking explorer and Adelantado Don Hernando De Soto searching
for new lands and riches to aid in his own as well as his countries
profits. After his death, Luis de Moscoso follows him as the leader
to get the remaining explorers safely to the city of Mexico. It
does not demonstrate a one sided wrongdoing but the unethical and
unfair actions that come about when differently cultivated humans
meet. It is not a heartwarming story of great adventures, which
leads to a Thanksgiving.It describes the four-year march across the
interior of today's southeastern United States based on information
the author gathered from translations of four of the original notes
and writing of the original company.
