notes:
|
The text describes the second expedition by the French under René de Laudonnière during which the Frenchman lent his soldiers to aid the natives under their king, Outina. Outina, convinced he was going to lose the battle, wished to return home, but the French captain put his men on the front line and won the battle. Without the French help Outina would have been overwhelmed by his enemies as the conjurer had predicted. This work was published by Theodor de Bry from manuscript notes and drawings made by Jacques le Moyne de Morgues, an illustrator and explorer, who sailed with René de Laudonnière on the 1564 Huguenot expedition to Florida. Laudonnière set up Fort Caroline on the St. John's River in 1564, but the settlement was destroyed by the Spanish army under Pedro Menendez de Aviles. Theodor de Bry's America. Pt. 2. German.
