"James Oglethorpe" by Kieran Walsh explores the life and legacy of the British general and philanthropist who founded the colony of Georgia in the early 18th century. The narrative details Oglethorpe's vision for a new society that aimed to provide a fresh start for debtors and the impoverished, free from the constraints of European class systems. Through his passion for reform and his commitment to justice, Oglethorpe navigates the complexities of colonial politics, Native American relations, and European conflicts. The book presents a compelling portrait of a man driven by ideals and the challenges he faced while shaping a new world. [Generated by language model - please report any problems].
