Summary, etc. |
Part of Pier 9's Lost and Found in History series, Ghost Colonies brings to light the fascinating but rarely told stories of history's lost colonies. Unlike many of the colonial s̀uccess stories' from lands like America, Australia, Canada and South Africa, the ghost colonies were promised lands that failed entirely to live up to their promise. They failed through ignorance, naivety, disease, internal fighting, attacks by native peoples or by opposing powers - or simply because they were political pawns, callously abandoned by their imperial masters. There are many tales to startle and surprise, sadden and fascinate: Friedrich Nietzsche's sister's attempt to found a ̀racially pure' German Aryan colony in the jungles of Paraguay; or the alternative New England colony made up of vagabonds and fortune hunters who offended their pilgrim neighbours in Plymouth. This compelling mix of adventure, mystery, tragedy, exploration and discovery reveals a fascinating but largely forgotten area of history. |
