Description
Return to the "what if" questions surrounding the Lost Colony and explore the possible fate of Virginia Dare—the first English child born in the New World. What happened to her after her grandfather John White returned to England and the colony he established disappeared into the mists of time? Legends abound, but she was indeed a real girl who, if she survived to adulthood, must have also become part of the legacy that is the people of the Outer Banks.
In the spring of 1602 by English reckoning, "Ginny," as she is called by family and friends, is fourteen and firmly considered a grown woman by the standards of the People. Over the past ten years and more, she has watched the beautiful give-and-take of the Kurawoten and other native peoples with the English who came from across the ocean. She’s enjoyed being the darling of both English and Kurawoten alike—but a stirring deep inside her will not be put to rest. Through encounters with other Native peoples, a brush with the Spanish, and searching the depth of her own heart as suitors come calling, she must learn to stand not only as the daughter of Elinor and Ananias Dare but also a child of God, who gives her courage to trust whatever the path of her life might bring.
