SynopsisA Spanish conquistador who is remembered more for his search for the legendary Fountain of Youth than any other accomplishment, Ponce de León explored the Caribbean after Christopher Columbus. He later went on to "discover" and name the "Land of Flowers," or Florida, then viewed as part of America's mainland for the first time. Detailed with primary source quotes throughout, this biography will engage any readers interested in America's earliest history.
