Laboring in the Fields of the Lord

Spanish Missions and Southeastern Indians

Beschreibung

Milanich documents one of the least-known colonial encounters in the history of the Americas and contends that the southeastern mission system was central to the Spanish colonial enterprise. More than 150 Spanish mission churches, built between the 1560s and the 1760s, once dotted the landscape between modern Miami and the Chesapeake Bay.
