However this was only one, small part in a life that was filled with extraordinary adventures. As a soldier he fought the Turks in Eastern Europe, winning a coat of arms For his armorial bearings, he chose the motto, Vincere est Vivere - 'To Conquer is to Live'. He was one of the original founders of the English settlement at Jamestown, where he faced not only considerable danger at the hands of the local Indians, but also from within the faction-ridden settlement itself."--Jacket ER -
