Download or read book The British Siege of St Augustine in 1740 Castillo de San Marcos National Monument Fla Classic Reprint written by Ricardo Torres-Reyes and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-05-03 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The British Siege of St. Augustine in 1740: Castillo De San Marcos National Monument, Fla This report fulfills the requirements of Resource Study Proposal H-14 for Castillo de San Marcos National Monument. As requested, the study traces the origin of the British attack on St. Augustine in 1740 and ascertains its objective, the strength of the combatants, existing defenses or the besieged town, routes and plans of the besiegers, tac tical dispositions and maneuvering, outcome of the siege and blockade, and reasons for the English failure to conquer Spanish Florida. As far as operations are concerned, we have followed the day-to-day English accounts of this event. These accounts are in the form of numerous letters by British officers, abstracts from journals, and depositions of several key participants, most of them found in the Report of the South Carolina Assembly There is no complete day-to-day account of Spanish Operations because, as they were the besieged, they naturally pursued a passive resistance and just waited for events to happen on the British camps in order to act accordingly. While the British sources are enriched with the different and often conflicting opinions of many land and naval officers, what is known about the Spaniards during the siege comes from the pen of the Spanish governor. Although he wrote numerous letters to the governor of Cuba, on whom he depended for aid, practically nothing is said in them about the drama that took place inside the walls of the besieged Castillo. This kind of human interest information is undoubtedly found in the voluminous papers dealing with the residencia (administrative review) of the Spanish governor, not available for this report. Outside of the above limitation of sources, the study that follows covers the subject of the siege as exhaustively as was possible.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A pathbreaking look at Native women of the early South who defined power and defied authority "An artful, powerful book. . . . [A] substantial contribution to our knowledge of women in the so-called 'forgotten centuries' of European colonialism in the southeast."--Malinda Maynor Lowery, author of The Lumbee Indians "A remarkable book. Alejandra Dubcovsky pursued relentless research to uncover the histories of women previously unseen, even unnamed. As Dubcovsky shows, they had names, they had families, they had lives that mattered. The historical landscape is transformed by their presence."--Lisa Brooks, author of Our Beloved Kin Historian Alejandra Dubcovsky tells a story of war, slavery, loss, remembrance, and the women whose resilience and resistance transformed the colonial South. In exploring their lives she rewrites early American history, challenging the established male-centered narrative. Dubcovsky reconstructs the lives of Native women--Timucua, Apalachee, Chacato, and Guale--to show how they made claims to protect their livelihoods, bodies, and families. Through the stories of the Native cacica who demanded her authority be recognized; the elite Spanish woman who turned her dowry and household into a source of independent power; the Floridiana who slapped a leading Native man in the town square; and the Black woman who ran a successful business at the heart of a Spanish town, Dubcovsky reveals the formidable women who claimed and used their power, shaping the history of the early South.
