The Marshlandic Saga: First Family

By: Douglas V. Maurer

Find yourself riveted with an unabridged historical saga of the Marshlands and its most illustrious mythic family, the Ribaults. In The Marshlandic Saga: First Family. This richly detailed, fascinating novel chronicles the part-historical, part-fictional saga of the Ribaults as the First Family of the Marshlands of Northeast Florida and America. Impeccably researched, it depicts the consequences of the European invasion beginning with Ponce de Leon in 1513 and the founding of St. Augustine Americas oldest city by the Spanish in 1565. As the novel chronicles the Ribaults tumult, misfortunes and victories, it also portrays highly significant events that touched off Europes invasion of the Marshlandic Kingdom.

The Fountain of Youth

Volume 2 of the Marshlandic Saga

By: Douglas V. Maurer

Set in the teeming frontier wilderness of northeast Florida, the Fountain of Youth chronicles the continuing saga of the Ribault family. Investing each generation with its own identity as historical events both factual and metaphysical unfold, one idea survives: to discover the mythic fountain of youth. More than Montezumas treasure or El Dorado, this secluded hideaway had become a holy grail for the Ribaults. Deep in the dense forest of the Marshlandic Kingdom, the quest for Ponce de Leons miracle springs was conducted as generations explored and mapped the region before Napoleon Ribault finally makes a mythic discovery.
