Oesterreich, Bryan A.

Abstract:

The Elizabeth II, modeled after the 16th-century sailing vessel that brought the colonists to Roanoke Island, brings early North Carolina history to life. It was constructed for the 400th anniversary of the first colonists' visits to Roanoke Island. Oesterreich describes how the ship was built and his experiences sailing aboard it.
