Beschreibung
The following book is a collection of journals and personal accounts written by Jasper Danckaerts. He was the founder of a colony of Labadists along the Bohemia River in what is now the US state of Maryland. The book journals the travels of Danckaerts and Peter Sluyter, two emissaries of Friesland pietists known as Labadists, journeying to North America to find a location for the establishment of a community. It is one of the earliest descriptions of the region that had been part of New Netherland, now New York, New Jersey and Delaware. Danckaerts and Sluyter eventually met Ephraim George Herman, the son of Augustine Herman, and he introduced them to his father. Initially Herman did not want to grant land to them, only permit their settlement, but eventually, he conveyed a tract to them because of legal issues.
