Popham's Town of Fort St. George is a historical account of the early colonization of Maine by the English in the 17th century. Written by Rufus King Sewall and first published in 1876, the book focuses on the establishment of Fort St. George on the Popham Colony site in present-day Phippsburg, Maine. Sewall draws on primary sources, such as letters and journals, to provide a detailed narrative of the challenges faced by the colonizers, including conflicts with the local Native American tribes and the harsh New England winters. The book also covers the political and economic factors that motivated the English to establish a foothold in the region, as well as the eventual failure of the Popham Colony. Overall, Popham's Town of Fort St. George offers a fascinating glimpse into the early history of Maine and the struggles of the first English settlers in North America.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
