Abstract:

A traveling exhibit set up by the British Museum brought 75 watercolor drawings by John White to the NC Museum of History in Raleigh. These drawings depicted flora, fauna, Native Americans, and the area around present-day Roanoke Island. Dr. Kim Sloan wrote a catalog that accompanied the exhibit and included essays by authors with additional perspectives.
