Negative Positive
Title: Great book
Review: I wanted a better understanding of day-to-day life in Colonial Virginia, from the founding of Jamestown forward to 1776. I also wanted a better understanding of the origins of slavery in Virginia. Mr. Morgan brings this information home in staggering detail, yet his writing style makes it an "easy read". The research that must have gone into this book is truly amazing, as reflected by the thorough footnotes and citations. Though I am no expert myself, an amateur history buff at best, I was certainly left with the impression that this is THE definitive book on the history of colonial Virginia. I highly recommend it to anyone interested in this topic.
