Excerpt from The Adventures of a Virginian At the opening of the present century, Colonel Seaton, who had served with distinction in the Revolutionary War, and who, as a member of the Assembly of Virginia, was well and favorably known in the politics of the State, was living on his plantation, called Stanwick, in the neighborhood of Charlottesville. He had inherited this estate, together with Oaklands, a plantation on the Rappahannock, a few miles below Fredericksburg, from his father.

Book Description
Excerpt from Old Virginia Before introducing to the reader, to the English reader at any rate, so many old friends and well remembered scenes from Virginian life, it seems to me that it would be not wholly amiss to give some slight historical account of the Old Dominion itself. I am perfectly aware of a certain incongruity in prefacing sketches of so light a character with anything in the shape of a historical essay. An author, however, may be allowed perhaps some license in this particular so long as he distinctly labels such a chapter with an unmistakable title. For no reader of a light work, I take it, considers himself bound to read the intro duction. And that there is perhaps even less occa sion than usual in this case, so far as the continuity of this little book is concerned, I will frankly admit. Having thus, I trust, made my peace with those who have no curiosity whatever regarding the past history of Virginia, I will remind those who have that this.

Excerpt from John Esten Cooke, Virginian Among Virginia writers whose careers have come to a close, John Esten Cooke holds a conspicuous place. He is by far the most voluminous, and has exerted great in fluence on later novelists. He is thoroughly Virginian, and is perhaps second to Poe in the intrinsic importance of his work.

Book Description
Excerpt from Recollections of a Virginian: In the Mexican, Indian, and Civil Wars Fredericksburg, Virginia, is one of the historic towns of America. Founded long before the Revolution, upon the Rappahannock River, at the head of tide-water, it commanded for many years the trade of the opulent planters of all that fertile region lying along the Potomac and Rappahannock rivers from the Blue Ridge Mountains to the Chesapeake Bay. The town was the centre of the commercial and social life of that rich region known as the Northern Neck of Virginia and the Piedmont country, where were born and bred the great Fathers of American liberty. In my boyhood there were many there who had walked and talked with John Marshall, George Washington, George Mason, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, James Monroe, and the Lees. For more than a century prior to the Revolution, the sturdy people of that region were often engaged in active war with the great Indian nation once ruled by King Powhatan.

Book Description
Excerpt from Jefferson the Virginian Bout twenty years ago I promised myself that I would write a big book about Thomas Jefferson someday. I was teaching history at the University of Virginia, which he founded, and any time that I wanted to I could look up and see Monticello in the dim distance. In the community they continued to repeat a remark of a discerning Ex President of the United States who had once lectured there. In that place, said William Howard Taft, they still talked of Mr. Jefferson as though he were in the next room. 'he was there, unquestionably, whether or not any of us really understood what he was saying; and in youthful presumptuousness I flattered myself that sometime I would fully comprehend and encompass him. I do not claim that I have yet done so, and I do not believe that I or any other single person ever can. Nobody can live Jefferson's long and eventful life all over again, and nobody in our age is likely to match his universality. I have not devoted all these intervening years to him. Until his two hundredth anniversary in 1943, my longest period of concentrated at tention was about six months; otherwise I worked on him only as occa sion offered, and occasion offered considerably less time than I had expected. My total labors added up to a good many months but they suffered from the fact that they were discontinuous. I wrote a few things about him, but others wrote more, and my small contributions now seem hardly worth mentioning. Since 1943 I have been able to give most of my time to him, under circumstances which call for grateful acknowledgment elsewhere. As a result, here is a volume covering the first major period of his life. Another, covering a second period, is just behind it, and, God willing, there will eventually be two more after these. I have entitled the work as a whole Jefferson and H is Time, and am venturing to call it a comprehensive biography, hoping that it will seem reasonably commensurate with the achievements and the stature of the man.

Excerpt from Old Squire the Romance of a Black Virginian A group Of horsemen had come out Of the Ashby pike, and were making their way toward Hopewell Gap in the Bull Run Mountains. A dweller at a distance from the road counted four men, and said that they were Confederate cavalrymen trying to rejoin Stuart's column, which had passed on a road farther south many hours previously; and he was correct in regard to numbers and purpose, though only three parts right in his classification.
