Deahn Berrini published a historical novel, A Roanoke Story, which came out in October from Somerset Hall Press of Boston. The story is a meticulously researched recounting of the first English colony in America, as told from the point of view of the Roanoke Native People. Historian James Horn praised it: “A Roanoke Story takes us as close as we are likely to get to understanding the thoughts, feelings, words, and actions of Native men and women who could not leave any trace in the written record of themselves or of what they thought of the strangers who entered their lands.”
