This exciting recreation of the founding, loss, and reclamation of the Virginia colony in the late 1500s also describes Raleigh's unsuccessful search for the fabled wealthy kingdom of El Dorado, the deterioration of his relationship with the Queen, and his eventual execution. Other topics include - England's relationships with Spain and other European powers - Raleigh's travel routes - his later explorations - how Natives in America received Raleigh and how the Europeans treated the Natives - Sir Walter Raleigh's imprisonment in the Tower of London before execution Teacher's guide available.
