Colonial Gothic: Gazetteer

Of all the Colonial Gothic supplements I have purchased (see my review of Colonial Gothic revised) this has been the most useful. It is like a small encyclopedia of early America. It is written by Graeme Davis a well known author in the roleplaying/ history field. I have read much of his work and even colaborated with him on a history project for another gaming company. He is fine author who can keep your interest.It is broken down into an overall view of colonial history, followed by detailed colony by colony chapters. Each chapter covers history, geography, society & politics, locations and mysteries of that colony. There is a further large chapter on Native Americans and a roleplaying adventure to be used with the Colonial Gothic roleplaying system.Of the Colonial Gothic supplements this is the one I reach for first when looking for a quick fact. The maps in this supplement were particularly useful as was the bibliography.
