| Abstract | "Although Spain's attempts to colonize Southeast North America in the 16th century proved a failure, the Spanish empire played a significant role in shaping U.S. history and the region's cultural, economic, and agricultural foundations. This book details the role of the Spanish empire in early America, beginning almost five centuries ago"--Provided by publisher. |
