An Ill-Fated Fort: The True Story of Young Colonist William Ruffin, 1564 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 314min
William Ruffin of Rouen, France, was 16 years old in 1562 when he sailed for the New World. This story is based on theevents of his adventures as documented by both French and Spanish eyewitness chroniclers. Because French Protestants(called Huguenots) were persecuted in France, they hoped to find gold in the New World and with it buy the King's favor. In order to avoid the Spanish who "owned" so much of America, they landed north of Florida, on thecoast of South Carolina. They hastily built a fort and left 27 volunteers there, William among them. Outside the fort the country was beautiful. William soon made friends in the Indian village and learned some of their language. But inside the fort things went so badly that violence exploded, William had to flee, was found wounded by his Indian friends, and would never return. He settled down to life and marriage in the Indian village until the day that Spanish soldiers arrived and insisted on taking William with them to Florida to prove that yes, the French were tryingto "invade" land that "belonged" to Spain. ungekürzt.

But this was no ordinary night. This night would ignite the flames of injustice within many an American colonist. And it would eventually lead to the American Revolution. That night, three British ships - the Dartmouth, the Eleanor, and the Beaver - were moored in the Boston harbor. Their holds were filled with British tea that the American colonists had refused to accept. However, Thomas Hutchinson, the royal governor of Massachusetts, in turn, refused to issue the permits which would allow the ships to leave the harbor and return to Great Britain. Already, in Pennsylvania and New York City, public outcry had resulted in ships in harbor there returning to Great Britain without unloading their cargo of tea. But in Boston, Governor Hutchinson was standing strong against the colonists.
