''Reasons For Establishing The Colony Of Georgia: With Regard To The Trade Of Great Britain'' is a historical book written by Benjamin Martyn in 1733. The book provides a detailed account of the reasons behind the establishment of the colony of Georgia in North America, particularly with regard to the trade of Great Britain. Martyn discusses the economic and political factors that led to the founding of the colony, including the desire to expand British trade and commerce, as well as to provide a buffer zone between the British colonies and Spanish Florida. He also explores the social and religious motivations behind the colony’s establishment, such as the desire to create a haven for debtors and to spread the Protestant faith. Martyn’s work provides valuable insights into the history of colonial America and the role of British colonialism in shaping the modern world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
