George Parker Winship gathers the earliest first-hand accounts of New England’s shore: Verrazano at Narragansett Bay in 1524, David Ingram’s tale of Maine, Gosnold at Buzzard’s Bay, Pring at Plymouth Harbour, Champlain, Waymouth on the St. George’s River and the Popham colony on the Kennebec. The English narratives keep their original spelling.
