on American Beginnings: Exploration, Culture, and Cartography in the Land of Norumbega
Good historical reference book. This illustrated collection of essays examines early Native American contact with European explorers, fishermen, and traders in Norumbega, the sixteenth century name of the Atlantic coast of New England near the Penobscot River in Maine.
This coast was the focus of several French and English voyagers seeking a northwest passage and other avenues to riches and treasure.
A tacit division gradually emerged: the French concentrated on the region north of the Penobscot and the English on the lands to the south.
