Download or read book Colonial Virginia Its People and Customs written by Mary Newton Stanard and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-12 with total page 516 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Colonial Virginia Its People and Customs Now may we call to life the everyday men and women of other times, obtain glimpses of them in their homes, going about their business or pursuing pleasure, know them as they were known to their families and neighbors? Not by reading history. History records events and names a few of those who figured in them, but no matter how ingeniously the string is pulled these generally seem more like puppets than people - to be made of bronze or marble rather than flesh and blood. A gossipy letter, though crumbling and yellow, telling what company the writer had for dinner and what there was to eat, the jokes that were cracked and healths drunk; a fragment of a diary giving the neighborhood news, the condition of the crops or the latest political excitement; a tailor's or a milliner's bill; a will; an inventory; a court record of a lawsuit or a trial, will make a bygone day more real than volumes of history. Notwithstanding the lamentable destruction of early records - all of those of a number of counties having been lost - Virginia is rich in this graphic kind of material. Much of it is preserved in still existing colonial county records, in files of that quaint newspaper, The Virginia Gazette, in collections of family papers, in old pamphlets, in privately published and other books most of which are now out of print, and in journals like the Virginia Magazine of History and Biography and the William and Mary College Quarterly Magazine.
