The book very much reflects the time in which it was written and the debates which it was part of, and, like much history of the period, seeks to refocus discussion of American history away from themes of frontier and nationalism.…

    One of the many speculations of Townsend that I believed in is her theory that one of the possible reasons why Powhatan sent Pocahontas to Jamestown to try to secure Namontack’s release, an Indian who were held in captive by John Smith and his people, was because Pocahontas was probably the best translator available. Pocahontas was probably able to know the basics of the English’s language growing up since the English has been coming to their town way before she was born.
