Book Historic Virginia Homes and Churches  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Historic Virginia Homes and Churches Classic Reprint written by Robert Alexander Lancaster and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-04 with total page 552 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Historic Virginia Homes and Churches This work includes practically all of the principal Colonial homes of historic interest in the State of Virginia now standing and many which have been destroyed, together with the churches most likely to engage attention. In 1888 the writer began to gather photographs of historic buildings in Virginia for his private collection, and later, upon the request of friends, decided to publish them. The making of the collection as complete as possible and the gathering of the historical data have involved years of labor and much travelling in conveyances of many sorts and by foot. It may be said that the work was done at the psychological time, for much information gathered in past years would now be impossible to secure and much of that recently added will soon be as inaccessible. The information has been made as full as the great number of houses treated would allow. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book The Planters of Colonial Virginia  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Planters of Colonial Virginia Classic Reprint written by Thomas J. Wertenbaker and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-14 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Planters of Colonial Virginia At the beginning of the Seventeenth century colonial expansion had become for England an economic necessity. Because of the depletion of her forests, which constituted perhaps the most important of her natural resources, she could no longer look for prosperity from the old industries that for centuries had been her mainstay. In the days when the Norman conquerors first set foot upon English soil the virgin woods, broken occasionally by fields and villages, had stretched in dense formation from the Scottish border to Sussex and Devonshire. But with the passage of five centuries a great change had been wrought. The growing population, the expansion of agriculture, the increasing use of wood for fuel, for shipbuilding, and for the construction of houses, had by the end of the Tudor period so denuded the forests that they no longer sufficed for the most pressing needs of the country. Even at the present day it is universally recognized that a certain proportion of wooded land is essential to the prosperity and productivity of any country. And whenever this is lacking, not only do the building, furniture, paper and other industries suffer, but the rainfall proves insufficient, spring floods are frequent and the fertility of the soil is impaired by washing. These misfortunes are slight, however, compared with the disastrous results of the gradual thinning out of the forests of Elizabethan England.
