While in London in 1705, Robert Beverley wrote and published The
History and Present State of Virginia, one of the earliest printed
English-language histories about North America by an author born
there. As a native-born American-- most famously claiming "I am an
Indian"-- he provided English readers with the first thoroughgoing
account of the province's past, natural history, Indians, and
current politics and society. In this new edition, Susan Scott
Parrish situates Beverley and his History in the context of the
metropolitan-provincial political and cultural issues of his day
and explores the many contradictions embedded in his
narrative.
