Extractions: Our Vince is in 8 th grade. In the course of his education, he has been required to write the occasional essay. He dislikes such themes, but I am often attracted to them, and occasionally have a crack at one. I offer to let him turn in my essays under his name, but these days he merely looks at me glumly and says "You'll just get me another F." Nevertheless, when he told me that he had to pick an explorer and compose an essay of pristine concision and ravishing beauty, I could not resist. One thing I love is the challenge of the form itself of the middle-school essay: you say what you're going to say, then say it, then say you've said it. Like Emerson, like Montaigne, you proceed mechanically - topic sentence, body, conclusion - until it becomes a super-human educational achievement to pretend to pay attention. Perhaps because he thought he could pronounce the name, Vince chose Hernando de Soto. Here goes. My explorer is Hernando de Soto. The life of Hernando de Soto is an inspiration to us all. He is my role model, along with Tom of Blink 182. When I grow up I want to be just like Hernando de Soto. One thing we learned this semester in World History class is that our diverse and wondrous world has always been dominated by thieving, treacherous, vicious, pestilential, murderous bastards. But of all of history's great thieving, treacherous, vicious, pestilential, murderous bastards, there have been few bastards as thieving, treacherous, vicious, pestilential, or murderous as Hernando de Soto. Hernando de Soto makes today's crack dealers, school shooters, and gangster rappers look positively genial.

Extractions: De Soto Memorial Park, located in Bradenton, Florida, chronicles Hernando De Sotos exploration of the New World. As you enter the park, you will see a replica Spanish Camp representing the Indian village captured by De Soto for use as his first base camp. This exhibit is open from mid-December through mid-April. From this spot you are treated to the same view of the Manatee River that this 16 th Century Spaniard had. On the way to the visitors center, nestled in amongst the Gumbo-Limbo trees, is a large stone monument placed by the National Society of The Colonial Dames of America which commemorates the expedition and marks the beginning of the De Soto Trail. The visitors center is open daily and a 21-minute film on the De Soto story is shown hourly. Hernando De Soto, born around 1500, Jerez de los Caballeros, was licensed by Spains Hapsburg King, Charles V, to explore the New World. Using the maps of the day he sailed from Spain to the Caribbean and began his trek in 1539. After landing on Floridas west coast, probably near Tampa Bay, his army spent the next four years winding its way some 4,000 miles across what is now the Southeastern United States.
The Age Of Exploration In Georgia Although Portuguese sailors may have visited the new world as early as 1454, desoto meets some Indians hernando desoto became one of the earliest http://www.ourgeorgiahistory.com/history101/gahistory02.html
Extractions: exclusively for Our Georgia History Although Portuguese sailors may have visited the New World as early as 1454, it is Christopher Columbus, an Italian sailing under a Spanish flag, who is generally credited with the first landing in North America. The initial thrust of the Spanish sailors was into the Caribbean, continuing the search for a route to the West Indies. It became apparent that no quick route would be found and the thrust of the Spanish flag vessels became exploration and conquest. 1513 brought Juan Poncé de León to the Florida coast. Moving north from Florida, Spanish exploration may have touched the present-day Georgia coast before 1520. In 1526 an attempt was made to establish a colony on the coast of Georgia or South Carolina by Lucas Vasquez de Ayllon. Although the exact location is unknown, historians now believe it is more likely to have been in Georgia, perhaps in the vicinity of St. Catherine's Island. The expedition ended in disaster, with Vasquez de Ayllon and many others dead and the rest barely escaping. Hernando deSoto became one of the earliest Europeans to see the state (1540), leaving a path of destruction in his wake. The Moundbuilder culture, already in decline, would cease to exist in Georgia by 1560, when Tristan de Luna revisited the area of deSoto's initial expedition. Juan Pardo reported a similar finding in 1566. Pardo had been sent to the interior of Georgia by Pedro Menéndez de Avilés, who established a colony and Jesuit Mission on San Pedro (St. Catherines) near the Creek town of Guale (pronounced Wah-le) earlier that year.
Conquest Of America: History For Teens - Hernando DeSoto Native American exploration and Conquest by hernando de Soto, 16th Century, To spend their new world fortunes, desoto believed he could reach China from http://e-student.net/inset32.html
Extractions: Native Americans were invaded by Conquistadors five centuries ago. Not long after Columbus discovered the New World, Spain settled Indian villages along our coasts. Hernando de Soto invaded Panama in his teens. He was "inspired" by three Conquistadors: Ponce de León, Balboa and Magellan. All were famous New World Explorers: Ponce de León discovered North America, Balboa discovered the Pacific Ocean, and Magellan sailed across it to China, the greatest market in the World. Ponce de León, who had sailed with Columbus, and Balboa made their discoveries when DeSoto was 13 years old. Later, on "Missions" with Balboa in Panama, DeSoto learned that vicious dogs, fast horses, and extortion worked wonders on Natives. He was called the "Child of the Sun" by the Natives for attacking villages at dawn, capturing women and children, then holding them for ransom for their release. Land and Indians became objects of ownership. Magellan then sailed to China but lost his life on the long voyage when he took the long way - around South America. DeSoto got very rich by Conquering the Incas of Peru.
Extractions: American History For Teens A serious problem understanding Native American Conquest has been caused by a confusion of Hernando de Soto's motives. His main objective was not to find gold here, as has been suggested for centuries. He was already rich from Incan gold and wanted to colonize North America. DeSoto believed this continent was an island . He planned to control it by controlling its Great River from the Gulf of Mexico northward to what he believed was the Pacific Ocean. The prospects of opening a World trade route through his new colony to China lured DeSoto deep into America. DeSoto knew that a great circle of Earth drawn from Havana, Spain's strongest port in the New World, to China runs up America's Great River and crosses the Indians' Northern Sea. Coastal Indians had told previous Spaniards about the Northern Sea. DeSoto believed that settlers, first attracted to America by gold, would colonize the banks of America's Great River once the Indians were removed to the gold mines of Mexico. Settlers could then build ships at a port on the Northern Sea, about where Chicago is today, then sail that sea to China. The Mississippi River, with all of its giant tributaries, was called "
