Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Character of the Province of Maryland Of the few descriptions of Maryland written in the seventeenth century, this is decidedly the most pretentious. Its primeval savor, the peculiarity of its style, and its unique account of the mighty Susquehannas, together with its portrayal of the early white settlers of that province as a well-disposed people living under a well-ordered government in the midst of Nature´s bountiful gifts, make it an enduring attraction to the curious reader; and when read in connection with other literature on the subject it is not without its value to the most serious student of our early history. Only one month after the arrival of the colonists at St. Marys, in the year 1634, Father Andrew White, a Jesuit priest, wrote in Latin, and probably also in English, an account of the voyage, of the planting of the colony, and of what he had seen in the province.
