Sinopsis

After the English kidnapped her and killed her Native American husband when she was age 15, she became the most important woman in colonial America. She was the first Native American to convert to Christianity and be baptized (1614), and the first to marry an Englishman, John Rolfe, in a church wedding ceremony (1614). Her marriage led to the Peace of Pocahontas which assured the success of the first permanent English settlement in America long before the Massachusetts colony. She was the toast of London in 1616 and 1617 before her untimely death at age 19.

Acerca del autor

John L. Rolfe always knew that he was named for John Rolfe of Jamestown and Pocahontas fame. It was only after he retired as a Philadelphia lawyer that he researched the history of John Rolfe 400 years ago. The author discovered that the first permanent English colony in what would become the United States would not have succeeded without John Rolfe’s entrepreneurial success in breeding and cultivating Caribbean tobacco. The history fascinated John L. Rolfe, and he wrote AMERICA’S FIRST ENTREPRENEUR about John Rolfe. The author also discovered that the first permanent English colony would not have succeeded without John Rolfe’s marriage to Pocahontas and the resulting Peace of Pocahontas. John L. Rolfe realized that Pocahontas was the most important woman in colonial America. He discovered through talking with people that there was a lot of misinformation about Pocahontas, often caused by of the many falsehoods in the animated films about Pocahontas. That led the author to write POCAHONTAS AND HER TWO HUSBANDS: The TRUTH, Not Animated Fiction, About Kocoum and John Rolfe (Not John Smith).
