Across the years: Memories of a Virginian

Dabney, Virginius

DOUBLEDAY

In 1802, a revenge-seeking journalist named James T. Callender charged that Thomas Jefferson, president of the United States and author of the Declaration of Independence, had taken a light-skinned slave named Sally Hemings as his mistress, adn that the relationship resulted in five children. It was also alleged that one of the children was sold into prositution at a slave market in New Orleans. Callender's charges have surfaced periodically, only to be deflated by scholars.

The task of compressing the history of Virginia into a single volume is a difficult one. The Virginia story is not only longer than that of any other state, but it is also probably the most diversified of them all. Whole shelves of books have been written about the early settlements, about the colonial ear that followed, and the Civil War, to name only three examples. The least written-about period, and the one that is least understood, is that which followed the Civil War. Next would probably come the nineteenth century for the four or five decades preceding the war, and then the early years of the twentieth century...I have sought in the present work to bring together the salient facts concerning Virginia's history and to describe the events and personalities, both good and bad, that make up the long and exciting Virginia story.
