Who's Saying What In Jamestown, Thomas Savage? : Thomas Savage
was just thirteen when he sailed to the New World and was sent
to live with Powhatan to learn the Algonquian language and be an
interpreter between the Indians and the colonists. Pocahontas
was a friendly teacher, and soon he was relaying messages. But
as the tensions grew between the groups, Thomas's job became
difficult no matter how hard he tried not to take sides.
Throughout the violent history of Jamestown, Thomas's position
provided a unique view of early America, now illuminated through
the incomparable lens of Jean Fritz. |Niños y Jóvenes||Historia|
