Förlagets beskrivning
Excerpt from New England Historical and Genealogical Register, Vol. 12: January, 1858 To the kidnapping of several Indians from about Pemaquid, in 1605, Sir Ferdinando Gorges imputes the colonization of New England. That barbarous act was committed by Capt. George Weymouth; not, however, to make slaves of them, but, by kindly treating them, to induce them to give his employers a more Yperfect knowledge of the country than they could otherwise obtain. At this is a poor excuse for depriving people of their liberty; for at the bottom of all such acts lies the same cupidity which is the cause of robbery and greater crimes. Gold and other rich mines were supposed to exist in the country, the knowledge of which the English expected to obtain from the Indians.
