The Romance of Pocahontas is a historical novel by Edson Kenny Odell, first published in 1912. The book is a fictionalized account of the life of Pocahontas, the daughter of Powhatan, the chief of the Algonquian-speaking tribes in Virginia during the early 17th century. The novel narrates the story of Pocahontas, who is portrayed as a brave and independent young woman who defies her father's wishes and falls in love with John Smith, a British explorer who arrives in Virginia in 1607. The novel explores the cultural clash between the Native American tribes and the British colonizers, as well as the personal struggles of Pocahontas as she navigates the complexities of her own identity and her relationships with both her people and the British.Throughout the book, the author portrays Pocahontas as a symbol of peace and understanding between different cultures, and emphasizes her role in bridging the gap between the Native Americans and the British. The novel also touches on themes of love, sacrifice, and loyalty, as Pocahontas must make difficult choices to protect her family and her people.Overall, The Romance of Pocahontas is a captivating and romanticized retelling of the life of one of America's most iconic historical figures, offering a unique perspective on the early interactions between Native Americans and European colonizers.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
