博客來“Was Mobile Bay the bay of Spiritu Santo†delves into the historical debate surrounding the true identity of the bay initially named Spiritu Santo by early explorers. Peter J. Hamilton meticulously examines historical records and cartographic evidence to determine if present-day Mobile Bay is indeed the same body of water documented by early Spanish expeditions.
Hamilton presents a detailed analysis, appealing to historians, geographers, and anyone fascinated by the early exploration of the Gulf Coast. The book offers a compelling look at the challenges of interpreting historical accounts and maps, shedding light on the complexities of early American cartography. This short book remains relevant for those researching the history of Mobile, Alabama, and the broader context of Spanish exploration in the New World.
