Reference: Thomas J. Wertenbaker, Bacon's Rebellion, 1676 , pp. 59-60: "The opening to investigators of the Marquess of Bath Papers by the British Manuscripts Project has thrown new light on Bacon's Rebellion. There are several letters from Bacon to Berkeley and several from Berkeley to Bacon. They show that Berkeley went to England during the Civil War to fight for the King, that Bacon was related to Lady Berkeley, that Lady Berkeley was in England during most of the rebellion, and that she corresponded with Philip Ludwell. The Bath Papers add to the already abundant evidence that Bacon fought partly to end misgovernment in Virginia  . The evidence comes not only from Bacon's supporters but from Berkeley himself, Ludwell, and others." "Berkeley's letters explain why he did not hang Bacon when he had him in his power, why he dissolved the Long Assembly and called for a new election based on a widened franchise, why he evacuated the almost impregnable post of Jamestown. There are several revealing letters by Philip Ludwell."

Despite close to a century's worth of archaeological investigations at Jamestown, little is known about the actual layout of the town, or the manner in which it was developed. Jamestown's legendary failure has served only to emphasize the unique nature of the tobacco plantation economy and its incompatibility with English settlement patterns, while the site's archaeological remains have served as static relics of America's quintessential frontier town. Yet the archaeological traces of Jamestown provide evidence of a far more complex past. Virginia   elites, while promoting the tobacco economy, strove also to develop Jamestown, holding culturally influenced expectations of the wealth to be had from speculative development, emulating the architecture, regulations, and layout employed in English and Irish towns, and experimenting with industries which were proving successful in new towns within England. While the century witnessed vast economic, technological, social, political, and religious changes taking place in England, Virginia's   leaders and settlers kept pace with these trends. In spite of environmental constraints, the demands of the regional tobacco economy and the emerging world system, as well as the presence of alternative Native American and African cultural models, Virginia's   seventeenth-century leaders continued to model their development efforts after those employed in Britain. To understand Jamestown's archaeological expressions, and in particular the presence of abandoned industries, rowhouses, and the abundant use of brick, it is imperative to consider the broader cultural context within which the site's planners, speculators, and occupants were operating and interactingBibliography: 336-70.

Selected Roanoke and Jamestown writings dominate this study of the form of early Southern writing, which proposes that form has ideological implication. Jamestown texts suggest that duplicating the English social structure will fail because that structure cannot adapt to the complexities of American experience. Overall, the texts show a tendency to comedy at times of severe cultural stress.

During the first decades after the Revolution, the original settlements at Jamestown and Plymouth came to be appreciated by American authors as cornerstones of the nation, foundations of American institutions and ideals. Indeed, most of the literature written before the Civil War about Jamestown and Plymouth seeks to advance the myth that the nation began with the heroics of John Smith and the Pilgrims. By the mid-nineteenth century, the patriotic spirit of the literature was often tempered by the realization that the ideals and achievements of the colonial past could not be easily assimilated with the values and objectives of the American present. As the Civil War drew nearer, American writers became preoccupied with the tragic aspects of Jamestown and Plymouth, generating a surprisingly strong impression of a nation disturbed by, as it was proud of, its colonial beginningsBibliography: 497-519.

Mathew, a merchant-planter in Northumberland County, represented Stafford County in the 1676 session of the House of Burgesses and was an eyewitness to many events he described. His narrative has been printed in several sources (see Andrews, p. 14). 2) ["The History of Bacon's and Ingram's Rebellion," 1676], Virginia   Historical Society. The unknown author evidently was a Virginian who was familiar with the course of the rebellion and obtained some of his evidence as an eyewitness.

The first history of the colony by a native Virginian. The four sections deal with the first settlement of Virginia  , natural resources and commerce, the Indians, and the present state of the colony. Louis B. Wright, in his introduction to a 1947 reprint (Chapel Hill: University of North Carolina Press), describes Beverley's account of the early period as sketchy and inaccurate and the weakest portion of the work. His treatment of the Indians, however, is sympathetic and realistic. In a revised edition published in 1722, Beverley softened his comments on personalities and made an effort to restrain his satirical tone.

The first history of the early years of the colony based on extensive documentation.
