Présentation de l'éditeur :
We have not sought, therefore, to confine our story to a personal biography of Pocahontas, for which the materials are not very abundant. The adventures of Smith in the Turkish wars, as related by himself, and the explorations, trials, and battles of the early settlers at -jfamestown serve to make a romantic passage ir history The story has not often been told so fully before, and we sincerely hope that the book will -prove of interest even to those already acquainted with its general features, and that it will stimulate many young readers to go farther in the study of the history of their own country.
