Decades before the wildly popular German writer Karl May (1842–1912) entranced European readers with his fanciful tales of Native Americans (despite never having set foot in the American West), a scholarly German prince, Maximilian of Wied (1782–1867), came here to do the serious work of documenting tribal life along the Missouri River. Accompanied by Karl Bodmer, a young Swiss artist in his employ, the prince arrived in 1832 with a sense of urgency, keenly aware of the mutability of Native cultures in the face of Manifest Destiny: “the beginning of settlement,” he wrote, “is always the destruction of everything else.” ....

A Northern Reader Says "Yes, It Was 1620!" | Letters

From: Spirit Of The Fighting 69th [Email him]
Virginians claiming 1607 as America’s founding remind me of the Irish who claim America was discovered by St. Brendan and his happy monks, or the Scandinavians who push for Leif Erickson and the Vikings, where even the Chinese have now gotten into the act. They all may have a point, but so what, the only discovery that counted was the Italian from Genoa sailing for the Spanish crown, Sr. Cristoforo Columbo.
So, it is with Jamestown, whose settlers weren’t there to found a new society, but to seek their fortunes. A permanent settlement was not a priority, only the prodigious efforts of Capt. John Smith could get them to build shelters and plant crops. Jamestown barely survived and many colonists were all for pulling up stakes and hauling their sorry carcasses back to England.

A1A, All-American Road, Navigates Between Quaint and Crass

A storied road even before it was known as A1A, the oceanshore stretch from St. Johns through Flagler County is now an All-American Road, only the second such designation of a road in Florida. (© FlaglerLive)
State Road A1A, or at least the region surrounding it even before it took on that relatively recent name, has always had a primordial place in Florida. Originally published in 1939, the WPA guide to Florida devotes its very first tour, out of 22 in the book, to the 102 miles between Jacksonville Beach and Daytona Beach, on what were then State Roads 78 and 140, the previous designations for A1A. The guide described the roads as “hard surfaced roadbed except for occasional short stretches of shell road; watch for cattle and sand drifts.” ....
