“This book, a companion to ‘Colonial Williamsburg: The Guide: The Official Companion to the Historic Area,’ recounts Williamsburg’s ‘story’–the events and circumstances that led to the town’s founding and its community life and political importance up to and through the Revolutionary War. It offers a bit of postwar history as well, including Williamsburg’s experience of the Civil War and the town’s eventual restoration-all 301 acres of it. The history of Williamsburg is critical to the American story of who we are and how our nation came to be”–
