A splendid narrative. - Weekly Standard ""For decades, we have lacked a modern account of Virginia's rich, tumultuous, and consequential history, which has shaped so much of our nation's past. Now we have it. In the hands of these four authors, the Old Dominion's story unfolds with compelling force."" - Nelson D. Lankford, editor of the Virginia Magazine of History and Biography ""Passing the narrative baton as gracefully as an Olympic relay team, Heinemann, Kolp, Parent, and Shade carry students and general readers on a brisk run through four eventful centuries of Virginia history. From Captain John Smith to Governor Tim Kaine, Old Dominion, New Commonwealth presents the political history of Virginia in the context of economic and social change from colonization to globalization."" - Jon Kukla, author of Mr. Jefferson's Women and A Wilderness So Immense: The Louisiana Purchase and the Destiny of America
