Writing a letter, building a better Roanoke

Write a 4-6 page letter to the Duke outlining the type of colony most likely to succeed (e.g., a military expedition, farming community, trading post, etc.). Explain the advantages of the type of colony you recommend and explain why it is better than the obvious alternatives. You will need to get colonists from somewhere. Where? How will you encourage people to immigrate to a North American colony? Remember to consider, not only the types of products which might be produced and whether they are suitable for sustaining the colony or shipping back to England, but also what role you think the local Indians should play in the colony.
