Reviews

Extensively illustrated with both contemporary images and photographs of modern reenactments, this is a nice book for browsing while offering some interesting insights into Jamestown's nascent years.
*Jeremy Dibbell, PhiloBiblos, http://philobiblos.blogspot.com*

Copiously illustrated in color with prints, portraits, maps, and photographs. . . . 1607: Jamestown and the New World is a useful addition to the popular literature on America's beginnings.
*Journal of Southern History, November 2008*

The book's debunking of traditional patriotic myths is a refreshing respite from anniversary hype.
*Virginia Magazine of History and Biography*
