Reviews

Charles Bennett's Laudonniere and Fort Caroline is a fascinating and highly readable collection. It recounts the narrative history in clear and straight-forward language, while also presenting translations of important historical evidence that together shed much light on the brief and tragic history of this colonial effort. - John T. McGrath, author of The French in Early Florida: In the Eye of the Hurricane
