Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book reveals groundbreaking discoveries about the enigmatic promontory that now forms the southernmost province of North America. Based on the author's expeditions from 1765 to 1767, the book traces the Florida stream between the Havana and the Martier Islands, providing essential insights for navigating the region. Prior to the author's research, the area had been poorly understood and was often the site of shipwrecks. Through detailed observations, the author charted the Florida stream's course, revealing its role in shaping the promontory's geography and climate. He also identified numerous previously unknown islands, shoals, and inlets, and noted the rich biodiversity of the region. Beyond its practical value, the book delves into the geological history of the promontory, suggesting that it was once part of the mainland and was gradually separated by the relentless force of the sea. The author also explores the impact of the Florida stream on the region's vegetation and wildlife, highlighting the vital role it plays in sustaining the ecosystem. Through a combination of scientific observation and historical analysis, this book sheds new light on a previously unknown and dangerous region. It is a testament to the author's dedication and the enduring power of exploration, providing invaluable knowledge for sailors, scientists, and historians alike. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…
