Join Kelli as she discusses the history surrounding the lost Roanoke colony, the first English attempt at colonizing the New World. In addition to discussing what happened to the colonists, Kelli will look into the history of the period to understand why Roanoke failed in 1587, but Jamestown survived only 20 years later.
