A sweeping account of America's oldest unsolved mystery, the people racing to unearth its answer, and the sobering truths--about race, gender, and immigration--exposed by the Lost Colony of Roanoke

In 1587, 115 men, women, and children arrived at Roanoke Island on the coast of North Carolina. Chartered by Queen Elizabeth I, their colony was to establish England's first foothold in the New World. But when the colony's leader, John White, returned to Roanoke from a resupply mission, his settlers were nowhere to be found. They left behind only a single clue--a "secret token" carved into a tree. Neither White nor any other European laid eyes on the colonists again.

What happened to the Lost Colony of Roanoke? For four hundred years, that question has consumed historians and amateur sleuths, leading only to dead ends and hoaxes. But after a chance encounter with a British archaeologist, journalist Andrew Lawler discovered that solid answers to the mystery were within reach. He set out to unravel the enigma of the lost settlers, accompanying competing researchers, each hoping to be the first to solve its riddle. In the course of his journey, Lawler encounters a host of characters obsessed with the colonists and their fate, and he determines why the Lost Colony continues to haunt our national consciousness.

Thrilling and absorbing, The Secret Token offers a new understanding not just of the first English settlement in the New World but of how its disappearance continues to define--and divide--America.

Thumbs up
I gifted these to my picky husband and they're a hit. Very large bars of soap, they outlast supermarket brands. They smell great and have subtle exfoliation. He likes the way they lather and leave his skin feeling. His favorite is the mint scent. I'm coming back to stock up on that one, and to leave this review.

Worth the price
A box of this soap lasts my son over a year with daily use. He cuts bars in half to put in soap saver bag/scrubber to make them last longer. Great scents, but not overpowering! He says quality is just as good if not better than National Name Brand natural bar soaps. Very affordable considering longevity of each bar. Great for gifts! Comes packaged in sturdy nice looking box with each bar having a nice label around each so you could give as 1 gift or add soaps into a gift basket or container as a variety gift

Packaged Poorly But Good Product
Scent: Cedar, Size: 7.73 Ounce (Pack of 3), Scent: Cedar, Size: 7.73 Ounce (Pack of 3)
While I like the exfoliating soap bar for its smell, later ability, and exfoliating pieces in the soap I can't give it a full 5 stars due to when I received the package not only was there white powder all over the box but each bar looked like it had been shaved down/dented. I feel perhaps they should work on how to package these or put each bar in a plastic sleeve to unsure there isn't a mess once you open the package. The price for 3 soap bars was pretty good compared to others where is cost this much for two or even one bar.
