W.W. Norton, New York, (1979), reprint.

Other subjects include environment, disease, and mortality; immigration and oppo rtunity; parental death in a particular county; settlement patterns; political stability and the emergence of a native elite; and English-born and Creole elites in turn-of-the-century Virginia...as a whole they provide a remarkably comprehe n s i v e o v e rview of the progression in the seventeenth century from a predominantly emigrant society, subsisting under conditions of great instability and high mortality, to a largely native-born population that had achieved a notable degree o f po li ti ca l a nd s ocial stability." Interior - clean and tight with no previous ownership marks. Exterior - minor edgewear/rubbing, flat uncreased spine. VG
