While his first venture was in Virginia, some of his most important work concerned New England and the colonial enterprise as a whole.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe publication in 1986 of Philip Barbour's three-volume edition of Smith's works made available the complete Smith opus. In Karen Ordahl Kupperman's new edition her intelligent and imaginative selection and thematic arrangement of Smith's most important writings will make Smith accessible to scholars, students, and general readers alike. Kupperman's introductory material and notes clarify Smith's meaning and the context in which he wrote, while the selections are large enough to allow Captain Smith to speak for himself. As a reasonably priced distillation of the best of John Smith, Kupperman's edition will allow a wide audience to discover what a remarkable thinker and writer he was.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Karen Ordahl Kupperman\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Omohundro Institute and Unc Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/27\/1988\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 304\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 5.93w x 0.88d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780807842089\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKaren Ordahl Kupperman is professor of history at the University of Connecticut and author of \u003ci\u003eSettling with the Indians: The Meeting of English and Indian Cultures in America, 1580-1640\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eRoanoke: The Abandoned Colony\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Omohundro Institute and Unc Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":50530238496883,"sku":"9780807842089","price":69.55,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/files\/img_61b4c4c6-4f42-49bf-864e-e7a936306a89.jpg?v=1790337579","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/products\/captain-john-smith-a-select-edition-of-his-writings-9780807842089","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
