Summary:

"Readers may already know the name Pocahontas before they dive into her story in this book. Though she only lived to be around 22 years old, her association with colonial America and the New World has cemented her status as a Native American legend. However, much of what has been depicted in books and movies isn't accurate. This book strives to bring readers the real story of Pocahontas's life as well as the historical context of the time in which she lived. A concluding timeline aids readers' comprehension while historical images and artwork show Pocahontas in a realistic way"-- Provided by publisher.
