This biography, the third of the Famous American Indians series, is the story of Pocahontas. This remarkable young woman was the key to a brief and essential period of peace between the Powhatan people and the first English settlers of Virginia. First, in her intercession for the captive John Smith and her apparent rescue of Smith at the point of execution, and second in her strategic marriage to John Rolfe, she finally secured an alliance between her nation and her new family. Repeatedly employed by her trusting father, the mighty Powhatan, as a diplomat between the Indians and the English, she created a means to secure trust between the men she loved.

This book is best considered a double biography, as John Smith is our key source on the period and on Pocahontas herself, and much of the book concerns his career. The book contains an original foreword from the editor. The book was originally published in 1879 by Edward Eggleston and Elizabeth Eggleston Seelye.

This book has been formatted and typeset for Tall Men Books in 2026. It is not a facsimile reprint.
