Credits: Produced by A. Light, and David Widger
Summary: "The Moravians in Georgia, 1735-1740" by Adelaide L. Fries is a historical account written during the early 20th century. The book explores the early attempts of the Moravian Church to establish a settlement in Georgia and the significant consequences that flowed from this venture during the colonial period in America. The opening of the book provides a detailed preface to the Moravian settlement, outlining their motivations, the context of their migration, and the sociopolitical circumstances of the time. It highlights the leadership of figures such as James Oglethorpe and Count Zinzendorf, as well as the collective resolve of the Moravian immigrants, who sought refuge and a means to spread their religious beliefs among indigenous tribes in America. From their initial negotiations with the Georgia Trustees to the arrival in Savannah, the opening portion sets the stage for the trials and experiences faced by this unique community of faith-driven settlers.
