Lost Colony of Roanoke: Mystery of England's First American Settlers

41 min • 12 september 2024

The colonists of Roanoke Island in the 1580's were the very first English people to try to establish a permanent settlement in America. They completely disappeared. The only clue was the word 'CROATOAN' carved into a tree where they had been. What happened?


Maddy Pelling and Anthony Delaney are joined today by Misha Ewen, author of The Virginia Venture: American Colonization and English Society, 1580-1660 and lecturer in early modern history at the University of Sussex.


Edited by Tomos Delargy. Produced by Freddy Chick and Charlotte Long.
