Sobre este artículo
Cambridge, [MA]: Press of John Wilson and Son, 1877. Hardcover. Very good. Issued as part of the Collections of the Maine Historical Society, Second Series. Edited by Leonard Woods and Charles Deane. lxi + 253 pp, indexed, with several folding facsimiles of handwritten documents. A very good copy, mostly unopened, with some light foxing, faint staining to lower spine. This is first publication of Richard Hakluyt's 1584 manuscript discussing the lands of the New World and advocating colonization by the English. Originally a confidential state paper, it was presented to Queen Elizabeth I on October 3, 1584. The present text comes from the only surviving copy. Haklyut argues that the English should settle the New World in order to preempt other Europeans -- particularly the Spanish -- from monopolizing trade.
