Gettysburg College’s Timothy Shannon on the Mystery of Roanoke
This week on the Lectures in History podcast:
The mystery of the Roanoke Colony’s disappearance.

Gettysburg College Professor Timothy Shannon explores what we know about the lost colony, the people who lived there, and the theories behind one of early America’s greatest mysteries.
