    The best version of Jamestown's Miraculous Survival
  

*by J***A on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 16, 2022*

I cannot applaud this book enough. As a military man and historian, I admire John Smith and the story of Jamestown. As a historian of Native Americans, I hold endearing fascination for the real Pochahontas, the first Christian convert of English America. But what is most important, this book is properly balanced and accurate. The sins and graces of the Indians and the English are here and a respect for both are duly given. There is no hint of Marxist revisionism/critical race theory in this book like that terrible version of Jamestown by Kelly's Marooned (4/10 avoid at all costs!).The Powhatan Empire is given in great detail, if somewhat horrific. The Indians were flea infested, impoverished,  fought each other, and the somewhat 30 tribes of Chief Powhatan's confederacy (Wahunsenacawh), were conquered or enslaved by him (or even annihilated). Their theology is given in detail and so are the ritualistic human sacrifices. They were capable of the greatest graces and the worse of barbarity, but so were the English, who landed right in the middle of it all! I dare not give more detail as the narrative is one of the most engrossing historical narratives written. After reading this book, I immediately decided to visit the Jamestown museum with my family and loved it.Speaking of the museum of Jamestown, if it as an institution were to choose one book that closely matched their overall narrative, it would be this book! 10/10.

    John Smith
  

*by M***Y on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 26, 2023*

Love this book. Author creates a beautiful vision of the 1600’s. John Smith created this country by demonstrating to others the value of hard work.

    An Excellent Telling of a Fascinating Time
  

*by A***N on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 6, 2013*

[...]Last year I went on a family vacation to Virginia.  We stayed in an antebellum home overlooking the James River.  As part of our trip, we visited the historical site of Jamestown, which was truly a pleasure since I have such an interest in America history.  I wandered around the gift shop of the Jamestown museum and one book in particular--Love & Hate in Jamestown--caught my eye.  Recognizing my own ignorance of much of the details of the Jamestown saga I decided to read what David A. Price had to say about a pivotal moment in our nation's history before it was our nation.Love & Hate in Jamestown is a great book.  Its brevity is certainly a strength for many readers who aren't willing to dedicate weeks and weeks, hours and hours reading about one particular topic.  At the same time, the book doesn't feel as if it's being unfair to the personalities and events it discusses.  I would have liked some additional details at various points in the book and was disappointed when the author moved in another direction so quickly, but the complaint is minor seeing as how there is a multitude of books on the same topic which could enrich my knowledge even more of this important time.David A. Price does a wonderful job, in my opinion, of being fair while dealing with some very harsh realities between the colonists of Jamestown and the 'savages' in their midst.  It reminded me so much of reading Nathaniel Philbrick's Mayflower as he described the pilgrim's interactions with the natives in Massachusetts.  There were faults, misunderstandings, civility, incivility, kindness, and brutality from both sides.  The treatment of the Native Americans during the colonization era can be politically charged, but Love & James in Jamestown leaves most of the politics behind and allows the reader to merely observe.Love & Hate in Jamestown is very much worth reading, and I would recommend it without hesitation.  It's not burdensome to read, and it reveals a fascinating part of America's past before it was America.  Love & Hate in Jamestown is a fine choice for any Thousander's list.[...]
