A bold, century-spanning voyage brought to light for today’s readers. The English-American, His Travail By Sea And Land offers a meticulously observed travelogue and history, a vivid historical travel narrative that navigates the West Indies with care and curiosity.This restored edition preserves Thomas Gage’s seventeenth-century England-informed gaze while rendering his voyage accounts into a seamless chronicle of maritime life, colonial trade themes, and the enduring questions of empire. For scholarly readers and curious classrooms alike, it serves as both a historical reference work and a rich, inviting piece of travel literature. The West Indies setting comes alive through observations, context, and a traveller’s eye for culture, environment, and commerce, making it a compelling resource for historical study and literary reflection.Out of print for decades, Alpha Editions brings this essential text back into circulation. More than a reprint, it is a collector’s item and a cultural treasure, restored for today’s generation and for future study. Whether you are tracing the chronology of voyage accounts, exploring early modern prose, or preparing a classroom study resource, this edition bridges distant shores and enduring inquiries-an accessible doorway to seventeenth-century England’s gaze upon the Caribbean world.
