Sir Humphrey Gilbert's Voyage To Newfoundland

""Sir Humphrey Gilbert's Voyage to Newfoundland"" is a historical account of the English explorer's journey to North America in the late 16th century. Written by Edward Hayes, the book details Gilbert's attempts to establish a colony on the island of Newfoundland, including his encounters with the native Beothuk people and the harsh realities of life in the wilderness. The book also explores Gilbert's personal life and motivations, as well as the political and economic factors that influenced his expedition. With vivid descriptions and firsthand accounts, ""Sir Humphrey Gilbert's Voyage to Newfoundland"" offers a fascinating glimpse into the early days of European exploration in the New World.The course first to be taken for the discovery is to bear directly to Cape Race, the most southerly cape of Newfoundland; and there to harbour ourselves either in Rogneux or Fermous, being the first places appointed for our rendezvous, and the next harbours unto the northward of Cape Race: and therefore every ship separated from the fleet to repair to that place so fast as God shall permit.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
