Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - 'Monhegan: The Cradle of New England' is a comprehensive historical exploration of the unique and influential island situated off the coast of Maine. Author Ida Sedgwick Proper meticulously documents the island's vital role as a primary gateway for European explorers and fishermen during the dawn of American colonization. Positioned as a strategic hub for maritime activity, Monhegan served as a crucial site for early commerce and settlement long before many of its mainland counterparts were established.The narrative delves into the island's rich heritage, from its early indigenous presence and its discovery by figures like Captain John Smith to its development into a resilient fishing community. Proper examines the challenges faced by the island's inhabitants, including the harsh Atlantic environment and the political turbulence of the colonial era. By emphasizing the island's outsized impact on the broader history of the region, the work highlights why this small landmass is rightfully considered a cornerstone of the New England experience.Rich in detail and historical context, 'Monhegan: The Cradle of New England' is an essential resource for students of local history, maritime enthusiasts, and anyone interested in the foundational years of the United States. It offers a vivid portrait of a place that remains a symbol of endurance and historical significance.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
