In 1736 a 25-year-old German colonist, Philip von Reck, came with the Salzburgers to Georgia. Von Reck kept a vivid diary and made detailed drawings of what he saw--Indians and colonists at work and play, settlements and houses, plants and animals. These previously unknown drawings from the Royal Library at Copenhagen, most reproduced in color, provide us with lost glimpses of the infant colony of Georgia only three years after its founding. The editor is Chief Parliamentary Librarian of Denmark.
