In 1607, three ships arrive on the coast of Virginia to establish Jamestown Colony. One girl's life - and the lives of her people - are changed forever.
To Pocahontas and her people, the Tidewater is the rightful home of the Powhatan tribe. To England it is Virginia Territory, fertile with promise, rich with silver and gold. As Jamestown struggles to take root, John Smith knows that the only hope for survival lies with the Powhatan people. He knows, too, that they would rather see the English starve than yield their homeland to invaders. In the midst of this conflict, Pocahontas, the daughter of the great chief, forges an unlikely friendship with Smith. Their bond preserves a wary peace - but control can rest only in one nation's hands. When that peace is broken, Pocahontas must choose between power and servitude - between self and sacrifice - for the sake of her people and her land.
Revised edition: This edition of Tidewater includes editorial revisions.

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Yes! This is a really well-written and well-researched story. I love how every character has a mix of good and bad in them. Makes it more real.What was one of the most memorable moments of Tidewater?
The baptism and wedding of Pocahontas to John both had me sobbing. The language used really made the reader feel the gut-wrenching transformation she was going through.Have you listened to any of the narrators’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
No. First time listening to these narrators.Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Yes! Of course, I couldn't. It's way too long.An amazing story teller!

This book at least accurately follows the timeline of true events in the early days of Jamestown, and the conflicts with the indigenous people of the area. While it is a work of fiction, the historical references led me into a side research journey of whether certain events took place.
The authors use of tribe names, places, and individuals is prolific, but not confusing. I did not particularly care for the voice of two of the narrators, but they nailed pronouncing multi-syllabic words perfectly.
An excellent book, a brilliant authors note at the end.
