Annals of the Swedes on the Delaware: From Their First Settlement in 1636 to the Present Time is a historical account of the Swedish colonization of the Delaware Valley in the 17th century, written by Jehu Curtis Clay. The book covers the period from the arrival of the first Swedish settlers in 1636 to the time of its publication in the mid-19th century. The author provides a detailed narrative of the early Swedish settlements, including the establishment of the colony of New Sweden, the interactions between the Swedes and the Native American tribes, and the eventual transfer of the territory to Dutch and English rule. The book also covers the Swedish influence on the region's culture, religion, and politics, as well as the contributions of notable Swedish figures such as Johan Printz and Peter Minuit.Throughout the book, Clay draws on a variety of primary sources, including official records, letters, and diaries, to provide a comprehensive and authoritative account of the Swedish presence in the Delaware Valley. The book is an important resource for anyone interested in the history of colonial America, particularly the early European settlements in the Mid-Atlantic region.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
