The Daughter of Virginia Dare is a historical fiction novel written by Mary Virginia Wall and published in 1908. The book is set in the late 16th century and follows the story of Virginia Dare, the first English child born in the New World. Virginia was born in Roanoke Island, North Carolina, in 1587, and her story has been shrouded in mystery and legend ever since. In Wall's novel, Virginia is portrayed as a strong and independent young woman who defies the conventions of her time. She is raised by the Native American tribe that had adopted her and her parents, who had disappeared without a trace when Virginia was still a baby. Virginia grows up to be a skilled hunter and fighter, and she eventually falls in love with a young Englishman named John Borden. The novel explores the themes of identity, belonging, and cultural differences as Virginia struggles to reconcile her English heritage with her Native American upbringing. It also delves into the historical context of the time, including the conflicts between the English settlers and the Native American tribes, the early attempts at colonization, and the struggles of women in a patriarchal society. Overall, The Daughter of Virginia Dare is a compelling and thought-provoking novel that offers a fresh perspective on a fascinating historical figure. It is a must-read for anyone interested in early American history, Native American culture, or women's rights.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
