Comprehensive in scope, this work begins with a review of the reasons for settling the area, going back to the sixteenth-century rivalry between Britain and Spain. Other topics include the early explorations and settlement attempts by Cabot and Raleigh, the London and Plymouth Company colonies, the Indians along the James River, the fort built in 1607, and social and political conditions. It concludes with an account of the origin and history of places along the James River. The text is abundantly illustrated and includes maps as well as a 13 page index.
