Évaluation du vendeur 4 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book tells the story of the construction of Castillo de San Marcos, a 17th century Spanish fortress in St. Augustine, Florida, a crucial outpost on the Spanish colonial frontier. The author meticulously recounts the challenges and triumphs of the building project, from the initial gathering of materials and labor to the fortââ â¢s completion. Readers will gain insights into the realities of colonial life in Spanish Florida, the constant threat of pirate attacks and English expansion, and the complex relationship between Spain and its native populations. The book vividly portrays the challenges of a frontier outpost, where resources were scarce and the environment harsh. Youââ â¢ll encounter the struggles of the Spanish administrators to secure funding, manpower, and materials amidst poverty, disease, and political machinations. The narrative weaves together the story of the fort with the broader context of Spanish colonial ambition, highlighting the importance of the fort in protecting Spanish trade routes and defending against rivals. This book offers a compelling look at how a seemingly mundane construction project was intertwined with the grand narratives of imperial power and cultural conflict. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9780282382001_0
