The Georgia Dutch

From the Rhine and Danube to the Savannah, 1733-1783

Beschreibung

The first comprehensive history of the German-speaking settlers who emigrated to the Georgia colony from Germany, Alsace, Switzerland, Austria, and adjacent regions. Based on twenty-five years of research with primary documents, The Georgia Dutch is a reappraisal of an ethnic group whose role in colonial history has been unfairly minimized.
