Category : Juvenile Nonfiction

Book Description
In this spine-tingling book from the nonfiction An Unsolved Mystery from History picture book series, journey to colonial America and discover the enduring mystery of the missing Roanoke Colony. In 1587 John White was chosen by Sir Walter Raleigh to lead a new colony at Roanoke off the Atlantic coast.

Did the colonists get in a battle with the native people—or join them? Did they try to follow John White to England and get lost at sea?
