After reading the essay The Jamestown Fiasco , I want you to briefly discuss your reaction to the essay.
For example, did you have prior knowledge of the early years at Jamestown before reading this piece?
Does Chapter 2 in the assigned Tavris and Aronson book suggest any reasons why the early Jamestown colonists acted as they did?
Why do you think most people know about the Puritans than about the settlers at Jamestown?
What do you think was the primary motivation for most people who came to the colonies?
