In 1609, nearly a hundred women and children left comfortable homes in
England for the wilderness of Jamestown. Bringing one young daughter
and leaving another in England, Joan Phippen Peirce first endured a
hurricane at sea and the loss of her husband’s ship—only to find herself
thrust into political turmoil and Jamestown’s Starving Time. Based on a
true story. The series is historically accurate and appropriate for all ages.
