Description

If you want to discover the captivating history of Virginia, then keep reading...
From being the home of some of the first people in America to being the birthplace of the United States, Virginia has had an incredibly rich and interesting history even before its inauguration as a state. Virginia was once the most populous and affluent state in the country and the birthplace of many of the most important figures in early United States' history. Yet, despite Virginia's successes and great heritage, it has, for much of history, been a divided state that has found itself debating even the most basic rights and issues. This, of course, is no more obvious than the splitting of Virginia into Virginia and West Virginia in the years following the American Civil War.

For all the generational Virginians who take pride in every aspect of their state's legacy, there are newcomers who arrive to work for the Pentagon, the CIA, and the other important government and military hubs in Virginia who do not look so fondly on Virginia's history. Yet, regardless of how right or politically correct Virginia's history may appear, it is incredibly interesting for all those wondering how this southern US state became the way it is today.

In this book, you will discover:

• Virginia's first people and their complex cultural, social, economic, spiritual and political systems and traditions

• The colonization of America and the United States' first settlement in Jamestown, Virginia

• Interactions between the state's first settlement and first people

• Virginia's culture under colonial rule

• Virginia's journey towards developing its own culture, economy and political system, separate from that of England, mostly surrounding the culture of tobacco farming

• The state's involvement in the American Revolution and the years post war

• The state's many social movements

• Virginia's involvement in the First and Second World Wars and the effects of the war on the state and country
