Cannibalism at Jamestown, 1609, revisited: Some lines from JAMESTOWN: THE NOVEL (available on Amazon):

“Then they took that poor boy’s body, and they washed it, and they chopped off his arms and his legs, and they roasted them and ate them!”  p. 123

 

Three days later, Peter Scott cut his wife and unborn child into pieces and salted them in a chest in his house. p. 126

  Before the winter was out, of some 300 people at Jamestown, only 60 survived until spring.
