This is the first major study to comprehensively analyse English
encounters with the New World in the sixteenth century and their
impact on early English understandings of America and changing
approaches to exploration and settlement. The book traces the
dynamism of early English encounters with the Americas and the many
cultural influences that shaped English understandings of the new
lands across the Atlantic. It illustrates that rather than being a
period of inconsequential colonial failure in the Americas, the
sixteenth century was in fact an era of assessment, adaptation and
application that culminated in the survival of the first
Anglo-American colony at Jamestown. Encountering early America will
appeal to students and scholars working on early English
colonialism in North America and European cultural encounters with
the New World. -- .
