Finished on 3/16/09:

ROANOKE: SOLVING THE MYSTERY OF THE LOST COLONY by Lee Miller, 2000. Had wanted to read this for some time, and after recently reading the novel Roanoke by Margaret Lawrence, I decided it was time. It was worthwhile, although parts of it were rather dry, and I don't believe it really solved the mystery. Miller provides clues and facts to support what is a plausible theory as to what happened to the colonists, but it certainly is not conclusive. Margaret Lawrence used this book as a resource to write her novel, and it shows. An interesting and provocative look at a mystery that continues to fascinate.
