Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Life of Francis Daniel Pastorius, the Founder of Germantown: Illustrated With Ninety Photographic Reproductions
This is a documentary life of Francis Daniel Pastorius and his times. It is the result of long and patient research in original sources in the Archives of Europe and America, and presents much new matter hitherto unpublished. The author has spared no cost and pains in gaining access to the original documents and other sources, many of which are indicated by the photographic reproductions.
The work is written in a style which, it is hoped, will prove readable, but at the same time keep the reader in touch with the sources. No statement has been made in the work without refer ence to a reliable source. The genealogist and critical reader will find in the footnotes the original authorities for the statements made in the text, and the reader unfamiliar with German and Latin will find the essential facts stated or translated in the Eng lish text.
