The Lost Colony of Roanoke - Hardcover
by Jean Fritz (Author), Hudson Talbott (Illustrator)
The Lost Colony of Roanoke is one of the most puzzling mysteries in America's history. In 1587, 115 colonists sailed to the new world, eager to build the brand new Cittie of Raleigh, only to disappear practically without a trace. Where did they go? What could have possibly happened?
Who better to collect and share the clues than Jean Fritz and Hudson Talbott?
