Travel back in time to real beginnings of the United States - the first English colony, Jamestown. You'll visit the world of Pocahontas and meet the people who changed that world forever. From the boys who arrived with the first colonists to the young people who came later, see what it was like to grow up in this "new" world. You'll meet young people who came as indentured servants, some who came to work for the Virginia Company, and some who came against their will, enslaved in Africa. You can find out what it was like to be kidnapped and what it was like to be traded for a bag of beans! The issue also includes an article on the archeology that is giving us many of these stories.
