Excerpt from Sailors Narratives of Voyages Along the New England Coast, 1524-1624 Giovanni DA verrazano, a Florentine sailor in the service of France who had attracted the royal attention hy his successful attacks on Spanish commerce, was com missioned hy Francis I, in the spring of 1523, to cross the Atlantic in search for a sea route to Cathay. In April, the agents of S pain in France notified their govern ment that V errazano was ready to start. Two months later, the Spanish authorities learned that he had re turned to La Rochelle, hringing the captured vessels in which Cortes had shipped the treasure gathered from the Aztec lords of Mexico. The proposed voyage of discovery was not, however, merely a hlind for this attack on the Spanish West Indian eet. V errazano refitted his ships and made a second start, only to he driven hack hy a Bis cayan storm. With his single remaining seaworthy ves sel, he finally got away for the West. In March, 1524, land was sighted, prohahly near Cape Fear, on the Caro lina coast. After looking in vain for a harhour toward the south, he turned northward and followed the shore line as far as Maine or Nova Scotia.

Featuring eleven stories of navigation of the New Egland coast between the years 1524 and 1624, Valiant Navigators brings us on board multiple sailing vessels to witness firsthand what the explorers saw. Originally published in 1905, this volume includes brief journals and letters of Giovanni de Verrazano, David Ingram, Bartholomew Gosnold, Martin Pring, Samuel de Champlain, George Waymouth, Georg Popham, Henry Hudson, John Smith, Thomas Dermer, and Christopher Levett. Over the span of this century, these men originally sought the Northwest Passage to China, but eventually turned their eye toward settlement of this new land. In each letter you will read firsthand accounts of the coastline, trees, plants, wildlife, and of course, their encounters with the Native tribes. You'll also see more historic names, including Squanto and Samoset.The original version is kept intact, with minor changes in spelling (from Elizabethan English to modern English), and contains additional footnotes, portraits, and maps. This Knowledge Keepers book is part of an ongoing project to reprint historic American texts in an affordable edition to keep our history alive and in home libraries.

The decades leading up to England's first permanent American colony saw not only territorial and commercial expansion but also the emergence of a vast and heterogeneous literature. In the multiple relations of writing to discovery over these decades, these texts played a role more powerful than that of simple recording. They needed to establish certain realities against a background of scepticism - the possibility of discovery, the lands discovered, the intentions and experiences of the discoverers - and they also had to find ways of theorizing their enterprise. Yet conceiving of the American enterprise positively or even survivably proved surprisingly difficult; the voyage narratives evolved almost from the outset as a genre concerned with recuperating failure - as noble, strategic, even as a form of success. Reception of these texts from the Victorian era on has often accepted their claims of heroism and mastery; through a careful re-reading, Mary Fuller argues for a more complicated, less glorious history.
