Beschreibung

'A Briefe and True Report of the New Found Land of Virginia' uncovers the extraordinary journey of Thomas Harriot, an unsung hero of exploration and navigation. Collaborating with John White, Harriot's groundbreaking work in cartography revolutionized navigation techniques. Although his extensive research in astronomy, mathematics, and navigation remains relatively unknown due to his limited publications, his remarkable account of the New Found Land of Virginia won readers. Published in the 16th century, 'A Briefe and True Report' provided invaluable insights into the English settlements and financial challenges in Virginia. Delve into the rich tapestry of Harriot's encounters with Native American populations, offering glimpses of their culture, potential, and the hope for a harmonious future.
