Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

The Story of Pocahontas is a historical account of the life of the famous Native American princess, Pocahontas. Written by Charles Dudley Warner, this book tells the story of Pocahontas from her birth as the daughter of Powhatan, the chief of the Algonquian tribe, to her marriage to Englishman John Rolfe and her eventual death in England. The book explores the cultural differences between the Native Americans and the English settlers, and how Pocahontas acted as a mediator between the two groups, ultimately leading to the establishment of peace. Warner's writing style is engaging and informative, providing readers with a vivid and detailed picture of Pocahontas' life and the historical events that shaped it. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in Native American history and the early colonization of America.The simple story of the life of Pocahontas is sufficiently romantic without the embellishments which have been wrought on it either by the vanity of Captain Smith or the natural pride of the descendants of this dusky princess who have been ennobled by the smallest rivulet of her red blood.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
