This was a great book! I personally enjoyed the information about how tens of thousands of years ago the first people arrived by crossing the Bering Strait。 It was neat to know that there was a land bridge that was between Russia and Alaska。Also, the fact that it was not Christopher Columbus or the pilgrims that discovered new land。 This was already home to the Native Americans and was stumbled upon by accident by the Vikings。 Now that to me is more important and should be given credit for to th This was a great book!

This book is divided into chapters that keep the story flowing。 I was surprised to learn that, because of how quickly tobacco depletes soils, Virginia was in trouble after the Revolutionary War。 They had mass emigration to other states。It was interesting to learn how West Virginia was formed。 I also didn't realize that more battles of the Civil War were waged in the state of Virginia (than any other state)。 No wonder it took so long to reestablish their infrastructure。  It was surprising to lear This book is divided into chapters that keep the story flowing。 I was surprised to learn that, because of how quickly tobacco depletes soils, Virginia was in trouble after the Revolutionary War。 They had mass emigration to other states。It was interesting to learn how West Virginia was formed。 I also didn't realize that more battles of the Civil War were waged in the state of Virginia (than any other state)。 No wonder it took so long to reestablish their infrastructure。  It was surprising to learn that Virginia took until 1937 to pay off its Civil War debt。 I thought the last paragraph of the "Conclusion" was strange。 。。。more
