Paul E. Hoffman's groundbreaking book focuses on a neglected
area of colonial history -- southeastern North America during the
sixteenth-century. Hoffman describes expeditions to the region,
efforts at colonization, and rivalries between the French, Spanish,
and English. He reveals the ways in which the explorers'
expectations -- fueled by legends -- crumbled in the face of
difficulties encountered along the southeastern coast. The first
book to link the earliest voyages with the explorations of the
sixteenth century and the settlement of later colonies, Hoffman's
work is an important reassessment of southern colonial history.
