Abstract
Peoples living on the shores of the South Atlantic during the first sixty years of the seventeenth century were confronted with challenges imposed by colonial occupation, disputes between empires and continuous warfare.

This book takes the perspective of individuals, families and groups of interest in their daily strive to survive a European pursuit of empire.
