Life on a New World Voyage

Millions of men, women and children risked their lives in wooden sailing ships - some no larger than a modern city bus - to reach the New World. Many made the voyage willingly, hoping for a better life in growing European colonies. Others - such as slaves from Africa -- did not. But all faced the common hardships of disease, violence, dangerous weather and death in their attempts to cross the Atlantic Ocean.Kling, Andrew A. is the author of 'Life on a New World Voyage ', published 2004 under ISBN 9781590181638 and ISBN 1590181638.
