Compared to the kingdoms of Iberia, England was fairly late to the
colonisation game. This episode covers the costly failures of
Elizabeth's reign, and the successful, but still costly, attempts
which James oversaw. Enormous death tolls from disease, starvation,
and violence were not enough to prevent the foundations of British
North America. Check out the podcast website:
