Bridenbaugh, Carl

12591 Oxford University Press, Incorporated New York, NY, U.S.A. 1980 Dust Jacket Near Fine Hard Cover Very Good Black paper on boards, black cloth on spine. Volume has very lightly bumped top corners. Now in clear cover. "Jamestown - the earliest permanent English settlement in the New World is the place where our forefathers first gained a tenuous toe-hold in America. The book is 'no chronicle of saints and patriots nor yet is it a history of white and tawny devils.' It is a record of both, a tale of arrogance and fear, of suffering, violence, and death that suffused a spot called Jamestown in Virginia nearly four centuries ago where the American people had its beginnings." $20.00USD
