Description
""A Brief And True Report Of The New Found Land Of Virginia"" is a historical account written by Thomas Hariot in 1588. The book describes the first English settlement in North America, located in what is now present-day Virginia. Hariot's report provides detailed information about the natural resources, climate, flora, and fauna of the region, as well as the customs and lifestyle of the Native American tribes that inhabited the area. The author also includes descriptions of the English settlers' interactions with the Native Americans, including their attempts to convert them to Christianity. Overall, the book is an important historical document that sheds light on the early days of English colonization in North America and the cultural exchange between the English and Native American populations.PAGATOWR, a kinde of graine so called by the inhabitants; the same in the West Indies is called MAYZE: English men call it Guinney wheat or Turkie wheat, according to the names of the countries from whence the like hath been brought. The grain is about the bigness of our ordinary English peaze and not much different in form and shape: but of diverse colors: some white, some red, some yellow, and some blue. All of them yield a very white and sweet flower: beeing used according to his kind it maketh a very good bread.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
