4. The New World was quite well done I thought, I enjoyed it.

Until several years ago I didn't realize Pocahontas died in England and is buried there. And I studied history thanks to my mom who was from Virginia and I went to school not that far from Jamestown.

As kids we found arrowheads in the soil on the banks of the Rappahannock River in SE Va. and also around our grandfather's nearby cottage on the Pamunkey River.

Thanks for the post, I'll try to watch the new program in March. John Smith did a job on the story of Pocahontas.
