Andrew Lawler joins us for a fascinating conversation regarding America’s first colony in Roanoke, which proceeds Jamestown by 20 years. Andrew tells of the compelling life and death struggles on top of solving their mysterious disappearance. To me, our actual history is light years more interesting than the fables and myths we were spoon fed in school.
