Robert Beverley was a scion of Virginia's planter elite, ambitious and at odds with royal governors in the colony. As a native-born American he provided English readers with the first full account of the province's past, natural history, Indians, and current politics and society. This new edition places the author and his book in the context of the political and cultural issues of his day and explores the many contradictions embedded in his narrative. 410 0$aPublished for the Omohundro Institute of Early American History and Culture, Williamsburg, Virginia 606 $aIndians of North America$zVirginia 607 $aVirginia$xHistory$yColonial period, ca. 1600-1775 615 0$aIndians of North America 676 $a975.5 700 $aBeverley$b Robert$fapproximately 1673-1722,$0133613 702 $aParrish$b Susan Scott 702 $aAtias$b Daphna 702 $aRountree$b Helen C.$f1944- 702 $aBurdette$b Kathryn 712 02$aOmohundro Institute of Early American History & Culture, 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910788487403321 996 $aHistory and present state of Virginia$9444674 997 $aUNINA
