"The Indian Princess; Or, La Belle Sauvage" by James Nelson Barker is a musical play first performed in 1808. This dramatization of the Pocahontas story follows the legendary Native American princess as she saves Captain John Smith from execution and falls in love with John Rolfe.

early American colonial relations and helped establish Pocahontas as an enduring American myth. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
