It’s taking me a while to get through this one because it is a bone dry historical text. It was recommended on an indigenous thread on accurate portrayals of Pocahontas- so far, it’s super in depth on colonizers and the Powhatan with some details and quotes/stories about Pocahontas. The biggest surprise so far is they’ve never mentioned her real name, so many other finite details- I’d have expected it.

Okay, we’ve hit the point where she is in England, the author waited quite a bit and has used her real name quite a bit while discussing that she was more than likely in charge of details of her portrait (the one by Simon Van de Passe in 1616).
The book is excellent and informational, but as I said- on the dry side.
