Description

Discover the pivotal conflict that shaped colonial American history. This illustrated exploration delves into the infamous massacre of 1622 and its aftermath.

The establishment of Jamestown in 1607 marked the beginning of a complex relationship between English settlers and the Powhatan Confederacy. As tensions escalated, Chief Opechancanough's surprise attacks on Jamestown and surrounding settlements in 1622 left a lasting impact. This book brings to life the tumultuous events of the colony's early years through engaging narratives and vivid artworks.

Engaging maps and diagrams illustrate Native American and English tactics, while detailed illustrations of battlescenes and period images bring the conflict to life. A decade-long war ensued, with Jamestown's expansion facing off against the Powhatan tribes of the Chesapeake.
