The Hernando de Soto Expedition by Patricia Kay Galloway, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

From 1539 to 1542 Hernando de Soto and several hundred armed men cut a path of destruction and disease across the Southeast from Florida to the Mississippi River. The eighteen contributors to this volume—anthropologists, ethnohistorians, and literary critics—investigate broad cultural and literary aspects of the resulting social and demographic collapse or radical transformation of many Native societies and the gradual opening of the Southeast to European colonization. | The Hernando de Soto Expedition by Patricia Kay Galloway, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
