SUMMARY

"Four hundred years ago in the tidewater forests of Virginia, native and foreign peoples clashed, and the resulting alloy became an American Identity. This is the story of a few remarkable people whose lives and nations were forever changed when the English established their first permanent colony here in 1607. Today, we know something of the people who lived out that drama. But whether we know anything about John Smith and Pocahontas, the deeper psychological tragedy of their times remains all too buried under myth and entertainment. From Jamestown to the Powhatan capital of Werowocomoco, Empires in the Forest follows their attempts to forge their own identities against the backdrop of a new nation that begins at a harrowing cost. In these pages, we rediscover their hearts and minds, and find some truth about how we came to be the Americans."--BOOK JACKET.Chenoweth, Avery is the author of 'Empires in the Forest Jamestown And the Beginning of America', published 2006 under ISBN 9780974270715 and ISBN 0974270717.
