The history and amazing adventures of the man who helped found
the Jamestown settlement. Among his other deeds, Captain Smith
wrote the first book of English in America and continually maneuvered
his way out of near-death adventures.
The authors also examine the Pocahontas story, replacing mythology
with the historical truth of their relationship.
The Hooblers are also the authors of a series of mysteries for
young adults set in 18th century Japan, including In
Darkness, Death.
