The definitive history of the Jamestown colony, the crucible of American history

An absolutely terrific book. --New York Times

In this beautiful, vividly told story, James Horn describes the beginnings of England's first successful colony in America, persuasively demonstrating that Jamestown was the first great crucible of American history.

A Land As God Made It describes the unimaginable hardships endured by early colonists in their efforts to establish a settlement, their search for gold mines and a massage to the East, and their hopes of finding fabulously wealthy Indian civilizations. It details the dramatic exploits of Captain John Smith and his relationship with the Powhatans, and explores the tragic consequences of English attempts to convert Indian peoples to Christianity. With unparalleled knowledge of Jamestown's early history, James Horn has written a gripping account of the colony that gave rise to America.
