Revealing America: Image and Imagination in the Exploration of North America

by James P. Ronda

This volume in the Sources in Modern History series situates the period of exploration within three central themes. First, the documents examine how European speculations and expectations guided the exploratory enterprise from its inception. Second, the exploration period emerges as an era of mutual discovery between Indians and Europeans. And third, the literature of exploration is presented as a means to understanding the changing face of the American landscape.
