Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: New. 1st Edition. SUSPENSEFUL: PERCEPTIVE: VIVID: FIRST-HAND: HARROWING: TRAGIC: DRAMATIC: NEW First Edition LOA hardcover (Orig. 2007) First Printing: NEW mylar-protected jacket showing orig. $45.00 price at bottom-right inside-front flyleaf * 5.12" x 8.12" x 1.72", 0.90 kg, xii+1332 (1344) pp * ABOUT THE BOOK: One of the truly legendary figures of American history, the soldier, explorer, & colonist Captain John Smith was a vivid & prolific chronicler of the beginnings of English settlement in the New World. This LOA volume brings together 7 of his works, along w/ 16 additional narratives by other writers, that recount firsthand the tragic, harrowing, & dramatic events of the settlement of Roanoke & Jamestown. A founder of Jamestown in 1607, Smith exhibited the courage, determination, & leadership that all proved crucial to its survival. "A True Relation" tells of the colony's perilous first year, while "The Proceedings" & "The Generall Historie" continue the story of its struggle to survive & prosper. "A Description of New England" & "New England's Trials" describes Smith's exploration of the northern coast & the prospects for its settlement. In "The True Travels" Smith recalls his adventures as a soldier in Eastern Europe & his amazing escape from Turkish slavery. Advertisements for the "Unexperienced Planters", his last book, is a critical examination of the successes & failures of the English colonial enterprise. Written in a consistently lively style, Smith's works are filled w/ suspense, astonishment, & keen observations of American Indian cultures & New World landscapes. The 16 additional narratives include accounts of the "Lost Colony" of Roanoke, the horrific "starving time" at Jamestown, & a shipwreck off Bermuda. Amplifying & sometimes challenging Smith's version of events, these narratives capture the fear & fascination of early encounters w/ the Indians; the brutality, desperation, & ingenuity of settlers facing extreme hardship; the complex interplay of feuds & rivalries, both between the English & the Powhatan Indians & within the colony itself; and the enduring story of Pocahontas, who came to occupy a unique place between 2 cultures.
