A Stranger Among Saints by Jonathan Mack

In 1609, on a voyage to resupply England's troubled Jamestown colony, the Sea Venture was caught in a hurricane and shipwrecked off the coast of Bermuda.
"Jonathan Mack has written an unforgettable story of Stephen Hopkins and how his indenture of seven years at Jamestown later helped in the settlement of Plymouth ColonyBit by bit, Mack extracts from early extant writings an intimate and insightful account of Stephen Hopkins of the Mayflower. Mack tells of Hopkins's critical role as liaison between the Pilgrims and the Wampanoag tribe with new insight and intimate detail. If you think you knew the story but wish for more, this deeper understanding of Hopkins and his service in the founding of Plymouth Colony will delight you." Linda Longley, Historian, California Mayflower Society
"We didn't know enough about Stephen Hopkins, whose enterprising spirit and rapport with Native Americans contributed to the nation's founding. Mack fills the gap with tireless research and storytelling skills, bringing a complex historical figure to life." Amy Finnerty, Culture Writer and Editor
"An absorbing, perceptive biography...Deftly crafted history illuminates the nation's earliest days." Kirkus Reviews
