Album Info:
"In 1732 George II granted to a board of trustees all the land between the Savannah and Altamaha rivers and west from their headwaters to the Pacific - a tract larger than Britain itself. English people of all classes rallied to the idea of this new Utopia in the American wilderness. Money poured in, public and private, and the first shipload of 114 people departed under the leadership of Oglethorpe. Reaching Georgia in January 1733, they made their way up the Savannah River 18 miles to their new home."
