Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of Virginia: From Its Earliest Settlement to the Present Time There are but few persons in this country who have not, at some time or other, felt the want of an accurate, well written, concise, yet clear and reliable history of their own or some other state. The want here indicated is now about being sup plied; and, as the task of doing so is no light or superficial one, the publishers have given into the hands of the two gentlemen whose names appear in the title-page, the work of preparing a series of cabi net histories, embracing a volume for each state in the Union. Of their ability to perform this well, we need not speak. They are no strangers in the literary world. What they undertake the public may rest assured will be performed thoroughly, and that no sectarian, sectional, or party feelings will bias their judgment, or lead them to violate the integrity of history.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Jamestown, Virginia: The Townsite and Its Story It remained for the Virginia Company Of London, under its charter of April 10, 1606, to found the first permanent English settlement in America. This joint Stock company, a commercial organization, from its inception assumed a national character. It was instrumental, under its charter provisions, in guaranteeing to the settlers in the New World the rights, freedoms, and privileges enjoyed by Englishmen at home and the enjoyment Of their customary manner of living which they adapted to their new environment with the passage of years. Jamestown was the site Of the first settlement that grew into the Colony of Virginia and gave heart to those men who settled the colonies that Came later. The first Virginians landed in May 1607, built houses and a fort, planted crops, and began the struggle for the conquest Ofa vast primitive land. They brought with them their church and respect for God, maintained trial by jury and their rights as freemen, and soon were developing representative government. All Of these things are a part Of the story of Jamestown. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2016-08-09 with total page 758 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the Colony and Ancient Dominion of Virginia As far as time would admit, some survey Of the country was made, the principal object of which was the discovery Of mines and minerals; and the admiral listened with credulity to the promises Of silver. The company being dispersed abroad, some were taken sick and died; some hid themselves in the woods, and others cut one Of the vessels out of the harbor and carried her off. At length the admiral, having collected as many Of his men as could be found, and ordered one of his vessels to remain and take Off the sick, set sail with three vessels, intending to visit Cape Breton and the Isle of Sable; but one of his vessels being lost on a sand-bank, he determined to return to England. The Squirrel, in which he had embarked for the survey of the coast, was very small and heavily laden, yet this intrepid navigator persisted in remaining on board of her, notwithstanding the urgent entreaties of his friends in the other and larger vessel, the Hind; in reply to which, he declared, that he would not de sert his little crew on the homeward voyage, after having with them passed through SO many storms and perils. And after proceeding three hundred leagues, the little bark, with the admi ral and all her crew, was lost in a storm. When last seen by the company Of the Hind, Sir Humphrey, although surrounded by imminent perils, was seated composedly on the deck with a book in his hand, and as Often as they approached within hear ing was heard to exclaim: Be Of good cheer, my friends; it is as near to heaven by sea as by land. At midnight the lights Of the little vessel suddenly disappeared, and she was seen no more. Sir Humphrey Gilbert was descended from an ancient family in Devonshire; his father was Otho Gilbert, Esq., of Greenway, and his mother, Catharine, daughter of Sir Philip Champernon, of Modbury. He was educated at Oxford, and became distinguished for courage, learning, and enterprise. Ap pointed colonel in Ireland, he displayed singular energy and ad dress. In the year 1571 he was a member of the House of Commons from Compton, his native place. He strenuously de fended the queen's prerogative against the charge Of monopoly.

Book Synopsis King and Queen County, Virginia (Classic Reprint) by : Alfred Bagby, Jr.
Download or read book King and Queen County, Virginia (Classic Reprint) written by Alfred Bagby, Jr. and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-26 with total page 438 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from King and Queen County, Virginia The planting and growth of a group of people in a new country is always an interesting story. It is regrettable, however, that great difficulties usually embarrass such a narrative; for a people in the process of rapid development oftener than otherwise permit the most essential facts in their history to drift into the limbo of the lost. And in addition to this common neglect, there has come upon the people of this county a civil war, destroying her most valuable public and private records. But the author has made great compensation for the loss of so much original information by the diligence of his research and the faithful arrangement of his findings. His pages unfold before our eyes the pioneer settlement of this territory; its subsequent formation into the political division known as a county; the orderly development of this people under the law, customs, religion, and social life of a real English community; the names of many individuals and families who have added substance, culture, dignity, and luster to a brave and refined people; the arrest and almost overthrow of this civilization by a disastrous war; and the subsequent resumption of communal life under radically changed social and economic conditions. This narrative will be of grateful and affectionate interest to the sons and daughters of this noble old county, and to Virginians everywhere; and, in after years, to those seeking information for a larger history of our race on these new shores.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Slavery in Virginia It is recognized that Objective views of the local character of slavery in every division of the present United States where it has existed are prerequisite to its true history in this country. My wish has been to contribute to this end by a careful investigation of the institution as it existed in one of these, Virginia, with a candid statement of results. The priority of this colony and the long coexistence there of forms of dependence give unusual interest and value to its institutional experience, and make it the natural starting point of the general inquiry.

Download or read book The Early Relations Between Maryland and Virginia (Classic Reprint) written by John H. Latané and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-08-13 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Early Relations Between Maryland and Virginia England until 1638, six years after the charter of Maryland was granted to Cecilius Calvert. Meanwhile, in every act of resistance to the Proprietary of Maryland, Claiborne was backed by the strongest expressions of encouragement and approval from the King and from the Council of Virginia. A few years later the relations between the two colonies were further complicated by the expulsion of a large number of Puritans from Virginia and their settlement in Maryland. During the Protectorate, when the hand of Lord Baltimore was powerless, these Puritans quarreled with the Catholics and a state of civil war for some time prevailed. Claiborne was in no way responsible for this state of affairs, and although he was one Of the commissioners appointed by Parliament for the reduction of the colonies to the authority Of the Common wealth Of England, he seems to have had very little to do with Maryland at this period.
