Beskrivelse af For God And Gold (1887)
For God and Gold is a historical novel written by Julian Stafford Corbett and first published in 1887. Set in the late 16th century, the story follows the adventures of Captain John Smith, a young Englishman who is determined to make his fortune in the New World. Smith joins a group of English settlers who have established a colony in Virginia, but soon finds himself at odds with the colony's leaders, who are more interested in finding gold than in building a sustainable community. As Smith struggles to keep the colony alive, he also grapples with his own personal demons, including his love for a Native American woman and his conflicted feelings about the brutal treatment of the indigenous people by his fellow colonists. Through Smith's eyes, Corbett offers a vivid and compelling portrait of early colonial life, as well as a nuanced exploration of the complex relationships between Europeans and Native Americans in the early years of contact. For God and Gold is a gripping and thought-provoking novel that will appeal to readers interested in history, adventure, and the human experience.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
