The Founding of Jamestown: Percy's Discourse of Virginia, Wingfield's Discourse of Virginia, 1607, 1619 is a historical book written by George Percy. The book recounts the early days of the Jamestown settlement, which was the first permanent English settlement in North America. The book is a compilation of two primary sources - Percy's Discourse of Virginia and Wingfield's Discourse of Virginia, both written in the early 1600s. The first part of the book, Percy's Discourse of Virginia, provides a detailed account of the voyage to Virginia, the establishment of the Jamestown settlement, and the early years of the colony. Percy was one of the key figures in the founding of Jamestown and his firsthand account provides valuable insights into the challenges faced by the settlers in the early years.The second part of the book, Wingfield's Discourse of Virginia, was written by Edward Maria Wingfield, who served as the first president of the Jamestown colony. Wingfield's account offers a different perspective on the early years of the colony and provides insights into the political and social dynamics of the settlement.Overall, The Founding of Jamestown is a valuable historical resource for anyone interested in the early history of the United States. The book provides a firsthand account of the challenges faced by the early settlers, the political and social dynamics of the colony, and the events that led to the establishment of the first permanent English settlement in North America.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
