Publisher's Synopsis

Ivor Noël Hume has devoted his life to uncovering countless lives that came before him. Here the renowned archaeologist turns to his own life, sharing with the reader a story that begins amid the bombed-out rubble of post–World War II London and ends on North Carolina's Roanoke Island, where the history of British America began. Weaving the personal with the professional, this is the chronicle of an extraordinary life.
