DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Ye Kingdome of Accawmacke or the Eastern Shore of Virginia in the Seventeenth Century The author of this volume, which purports to be a History of the Eastern Shore of Virginia in the Seventeenth Century, submits the completed work to the public. He can only say that he has not failed where others have succeeded, for the little peninsula has had no former historian. The task was undertaken in the hope that the very deficiencies in his own narrative might urge a more competent pen to action and inspire a better history of this long-neglected region of the Old Dominion. If this volume accomplish no other result than to impress a more able writer with the valuable material for such a work, if it call attention to events of all-absorbing interest as yet inadequately described, and bring to light from among the musty archives of Accomac and Northampton but a few facts bearing upon the history of our State, then will the author rest content in the feeling that while he has not succeeded as a historian, yet he has induced a more accurate portraiture of a country and a people. It is an astonishing fact that such historic documents as the Pledge to the Commonwealth, The Northampton Protest, The Northampton Grievances, Bacon's Appeal to Accomac, and the Accomac Memorial, addressed to Berkeley after the Rebellion of 1676, should all have been utterly neglected by the historians of Virginia, for these documents are not simply matters of local interest, but have a direct bearing upon the general history of the State. Indeed, the texts of these instruments have never before been collected in a single volume. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
