Book excerpt: A New York Times Notable Book and aSan Jose Mercury News Top 20 Nonfiction Book of 2003In 1606, approximately 105 British colonists sailed to America, seeking gold and a trade route to the Pacific. Instead, they found disease, hunger, and hostile natives. Ill prepared for such hardship, the men responded with incompetence and infighting; only the leadership of Captain John Smith averted doom for the first permanent English settlement in the New World.The Jamestown colony is one of the great survival stories of American history, and this book brings it fully to life for the first time. Drawing on extensive original documents, David A. Price paints intimate portraits of the major figures from the formidable monarch Chief Powhatan, to the resourceful but unpopular leader John Smith, to the spirited Pocahontas, who twice saved Smith’s life. He also gives a rare balanced view of relations between the settlers and the natives and debunks popular myths about the colony. This is a superb work of history, reminding us of the horrors and heroism that marked the dawning of our nation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pocahontas’s name wasn’t originally Pocahontas. “Pocahontas” was a nickname! She was later known by another name, too. Once she began following the religion of the English, she took the name Rebecca. More of her life is uncertain. Readers learn the major accounts of Pocahontas’s life and the discrepancies among them. Full-color images and fun fact boxes help contextualize her life with that of the Powhatan culture in which she grew up. The Powhatans’ relationship with the English colored her life, and the stories that came of her dealings with the English still fascinate today.
