The Popham Colony—also known as the Sagadahoc Settlement—was the vanguard of a new colonization model for the English, the result of rights stripped from nobleman and redistributed to new corporate entities. After years of sailors kidnapping natives off the coast of modern day Maine to train as interpreters, Sir Ferdinando Gorges and Sir John Popham returned them hoping the fair treatment given to their Abenaki captives (Indian tribe belonging to the Algonquian peoples of northeastern North America), will foster good will with their native communities. Joining Mark is Eric Yanis of The Other States of America podcast.
