I read that book too. You're right, it was impossible to put down!
There were a few places that seemed revisionist, but her hypothesis is very interesting.

Did you see the just-concluded 4-part series on PBS about Shakespeare? It was excellent and Shakespeare lived during the period of the Roanoke Colony. This series provided the best background of Elizabethan England that I've ever seen. I thought a lot about the book while I watched it. It was a severe police state and everyone had to watch their step with care. When I get a chance, I plan to re-read Miller's book.
