From the rear cover

Roanoke Island narrates the daily affairs as well as the perils that he colonists experienced, including their relationships with the Roanoacs, Croatoans, and other Indian tribes. Stick shows that the Indians living in northwestern North Carolina--so often described by the colonists as savages--had actually developed very well-organized social patterns.
