Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Sir Ferdinando Gorges and His Province of Maine, Vol. 1: Including the Brief Relation, the Brief Several years ago I was invited by the Prince Society to prepare a monograph upon the life and works of Sir Ferdinando Gorges. No work of this nature and no original documents relating to this noted man were known to exist in English archives, fave some papers in the British Museum, which exhibited his connection with the Essex rebellion; indeed, a relative of the family, in reply to an inquiry respecting the subject, had declared, in the London Notes and Queries, that, although he had endeavored to investigate the family history, he doubted "whether any original papers of Sir Ferdinando are now extant." This was not encouraging, since the writer in the London Notes and Queries was apparently better situated to discover such papers, if any existed, than any one could be in America. Deciding to undertake the work, I began by copying original references to the subject wherever I could find them in America.
