Summary:This classic historical resource remains the most complete work on the establishment of Fort Caroline, which heralded the start of permanent settlement by Europeans in North America.America's history was shaped in part by the clash of cultures that took place in the southeastern United States in the 1560's. Indians, French,and Spaniards vied to profit from European attempts to colonize the land Juan Ponce de Leon had named La Florida. Rene de Goulaine de Laudonniere founded a French Huguenot settlement on the St. Johns River near present-day Jackson.
