Behind every Virginia courthouse lies a story of land, law, and family; Charles Edward Burrell uncovers it for Prince Edward County in this enduring classic of local history. The past feels close here. From its formation in 1753 through the upheavals of colonial and antebellum Virginia and into the modern era, A History of Prince Edward County, Virginia traces the growth of a community at the heart of central Virginia history, attending to its people, institutions, and public life. At once a flowing narrative and a dependable Virginia county history book, it serves as both engaging reading and a solid local history reference for anyone curious about how one county helped shape a state and a nation. Long valued by researchers and family historians as an American regional history book, Burrell's study has become a touchstone for Prince Edward County genealogy, rich in clues to Virginia land and court records, patterns of settlement, and Virginia local government history. It stands as a meticulous genealogy research resource and reference book for historians of the South, fitting naturally into any historic Virginia counties collection and the shelves of those interested in old Virginia family histories. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure.
