Book Description
New archeological discoveries may finally solve the greatest mystery of Colonial America in this history of Roanoke and Hatteras Islands. Established on what is now North Carolina’s Roanoke Island, the Roanoke Colony was intended to be England’s first permanent settlement in North America. But in 1590, the entire population disappeared without a trace. The only clue to their fate was the word “Croatoan” carved into a tree. For centuries, the legend of the Lost Colony has captivated imaginations. Now, archaeologists from the University of Bristol, working with the Croatoan Archaeological Society, have uncovered tantalizing clues to the fate of the colony. In The Lost Colony and Hatteras Island, Hatteras native and amateur archaeologist Scott Dawson compiles what scholars know about the Lost Colony along with what scholars have found beneath the soil of Hatteras.

Book Description
Read the exciting details concerning the most notorious murder of all time! You decide who to blame! Edward "Blackbeard" Thache has been misrepresented, misunderstood, and rhetorically damned in the 300 years since "A General History of the Pyrates" was first published in 1724. Indeed, Thache and his reputation has all but been lost to us. This book explores the details, motivations, and literary evidence used against Blackbeard leading up to his death and in the profitable aftermath. It has been presented as a publication of "Blackbeard 300: Nov. 22, 1718-2018" tri-centennial.
