Publisher's summary

Take a step back and discover the 13 colonies of Colonial America. From European exploration through the American Revolution, witness the unique history and character of each colony. Trace the role of each colony in the American Revolution and that colony's impact on the formation of our Constitution.

Virginia - After Sir Walter Raleigh failed in his attempt to found a settlement at Roanoke, a colony on the Chesapeake Bay was successfully established. Primary source materials enhance lively text to give students an in-depth look at what led to the formation and success of the colony of Virginia. No other colony - except Massachusetts - was more influential in the formation of America as a nation.

Early days of Virginia

This is a good book for a refresher or for test taking students. As an adult, I did find out things I didn't know as well as being refreshed on things that I did. I would recommend this book to anyone needing to learn early VA. and the some of the
beginnings of America.
