This book analyzes several hypotheses and demonstrates why none have been shown to be more probable than any of the others. The authors recount the history of the English expeditions in the 1580s and the original searches for the colonists from 1590 until the 1620s. The archaeological evidence gathered from the 19th through the 21st centuries is presented. The book then examines how the disappearance of the colonists has been portrayed in pseudoscience, fiction and popular culture from the beginnings until the present day. In the end, readers will have all the data they need to judge new claims concerning the fate of The Lost Colony. Paperback, 220 pages, $29.95; e-book, $19.99 (prices may vary by retailer).
