A Voyage into New England, Begun in 1623, and Ended in 1624
Description:
Account of a visit to New England by an Englishman, consisting mainly of resources that can be extracted from the land or areas that can be used to create “plantations” – agriculture for profit. In a description of the current day York River, he mentions that land has been cleared and planted by indigenous people “who are all dead,” and thus ideal for incoming settlers.
