Blood on the River by Elisa Carbone Book Summary

Twelve-year-old Samuel Collier is a lowly commoner on the streets of London. So when he becomes the page of Captain John Smith and boards the Susan Constant, bound for the New World, he can’t believe his good fortune. He’s heard that gold washes ashore with every tide. But beginning with the stormy journey and his first contact with the native people, he realizes that the New World is nothing like he imagined. The lush Virginia shore where they establish the colony of James Town is both beautiful and forbidding, and it’s hard to know who’s a friend or foe. As he learns the language of the Algonquian Indians and observes Captain Smith’s wise diplomacy, Samuel begins to see that he can be whomever he wants to be in this new land.

Love it. All I can say

My favorite. This is my most favorite book. It make you laugh it makes you cry, it keeps you on the edge of you seat and I highly recommend reading this book!!❤️😁❤️

Blood on the River. I was assigned this book for school and I love it so much!!! The book tells a lot of history about Jamestown in a fun learning way! I think everybody should read this book because they will learn a lot!

Blood on the river. It is very good and tells about the hard ship in Jamestown in a fun way!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great Book. I read this book for a history assignment over summer, and I will admit, I hated this book in the beginning. But it grew on me, and now it’s a book I reread with relish. I love references to Algonquian language and words and Samuel’s character development and relationships. This book does an incredible job of engaging the reader with Samuel’s world and bringing it to life. However, the characters are incredibly unappealing to twenty-first century readers in the beginning, and there is a lot of racism and prejudice/violence/cruelty mentioned and dealt with.

Sup baby. I loved Samuel, he was hot

Yummy. I ate the main characters butthole

Great story. I teach fifth grade and my students LOVE this book. It presents typically dry, dull history in a way that is approachable and engaging and paints a vivid picture of settlement life. They would literally yell for me to keep reading at the end of every chapter. Highly recommended historical fiction!

Blood on the River review. I forgot to bring this book home. So I bought it. lol any way it's a really good book and I read it in my enrichment program

The blood on the river review. So first off, I'm reading this book in school and usually books we read are boring. I have to say it is interesting but isn't that "poping". I also don't see how the title goes with the book; but that's not the point. Some points in the book are confusing like who is who or what time period it is. That's all I have to say about the book. Don't take my word, though, I hate to be disrespectful.

:). THIS BOOK IS SO GOOD! TRUST ME! READ IT!

Amazing!. My 8th grade son was assigned this as summer reading and, as I (like Captain Smith) will not send people where I am unwilling to lead, took it upon myself to read this book, as i have so many others over the course of my children's schooling. By chapter six, I was hooked. And, began to relate to the hardships that my family's own ancestors that have likewise been here since the early 17th century (they settled in New England), must have faced. We have so much in this 21st century world of ours that we take for granted. It is extraordinarily important that we never lose sight of the sacrifices and hardships of those that came before us, nor respect for the native peoples that for 20,000 years held dominion and harmony with this land we now call home. This book does an amazing job of placing both worlds in their proper context, and causes one to wonder what would have become of this world if Powhatan had succeeded in repelling the European invasion of his ancestral land. One can only wonder...

Better than I expected. So when I first read this book I was on my schools battle of the books team and it was on the list. Another kid said it was boring so I decided to read that one last. It was awesome. Maybe I am just a nerd (that is true btw) but it was great. I loved the adoption theory, and Samuels clever nicknames for the wealthy men. It depicted real life struggles that the settlers endured and as far as I can tell Elisa Carbone didn’t sugarcoat it. I was amazing. Oh and I would like to say that some of these reviews are pretty messed up. Like weird. And inappropriate-ish.
