Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book includes several historical documents relating to a 1654 expedition to the West Indies, led by General Robert Venables. The accounts detail the motives for the expedition, which were primarily to gain control of Spanish territories in the region and promote Protestantism. The author provides both justifications of, and objections to, attacking the Spanish. General Venables defends the actions of himself and his officers, rebuffing accusations of inadequate leadership and military strategy. The documents go on to chronicle disagreements between the expedition's leaders, including disputes over strategy and the distribution of supplies. Further accounts highlight the poor quality of the army and the negative impact of disease on the force. Throughout the narrative, the author emphasizes the importance of Protestant goals and the need to expand English influence in the New World. With first-hand accounts from those involved, including a defense by General Venables himself, this book provides rich historical detail of a significant colonial expedition. 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 r�f. du vendeur 9781332060344_0
