From the inside cover: This is the exciting story of Chanco, the Indian boy who saved Jamestown, Virginia, from Indian massacre in 1622.
Chanco, working onthe Pace plantation, and young Charles Pace become fast friends. Wise in the ways of the woods, Chanco teaches Charles and their friend Peg facinating Indian lore; they go spear-fishing at night; they build an Indian canoe; and, meanwhile, the Indian boy learns and comes to love the Ten Commandments.
When Chanco's brother, stealing from the woods, tells him to kill the Pace family, Chanco struggles between loyalty to his tribe and love for the Paces. In the end, Chanco's solution of the problem makes him the hero of Jamestown.
Arrows Over Jamestown is a lively account of colonial days on the James River when danger lurked nearby. Chanco's clever dog Keke; Tabby, the spolied cat; two spirited horses the Indians try to steal; and mysterious "hoot owl" signal calls from the forest add to the interest and suspense. A Vantage Book
