Americans have learned in elementary school that their country was
founded by a group of brave, white, largely British Christians.
Modern reinterpretations recognize the contributions of African and
indigenous Americans, but the basic premise has persisted. This
groundbreaking study fundamentally challenges the traditional
national storyline by postulating that many of the initial
colonists were actually of Sephardic Jewish and Muslin Moorish
ancestry. Supporting references include historical writings, ship
manifests, wills, land grants, DNA test results, genealogies, and
settler lists that provide for the first time the Spanish, Hebrew,
Arabic, and Jewish origins of more than 5,000 surnames, the
majority widely assumed to be British. By documenting the
widespread presence of Jews and Muslims in prominent economic,
political, financial and social positions in all of the original
colonies, this innovative work offers a fresh perspective on the
early American experience.
