## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Excellent history
  

*by L***H on Reviewed in the United States on April 27, 2023*

The book is excellent, although the writing is in some spots more like a textbook than a popular history, I am finding it well worth the effort.  One caveat, the Kindle edition does NOT include the illustrations.  Instead, there is a blank spot with the completely useless advice to refer to a print edition of the book.  Had the fact that pictures and maps referred to in the text were not included been disclosed I wouldn't have purchased the ebook.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Interesting and thought provoking
  

*by O***L on Reviewed in the United States on December 4, 2015*

Very interesting view of Colonial Virginia's hierarchy with detailed research to support the thesis of female rights and their societal position relative to men and slaves. Well written. Recommend to anyone interested in early American history, daily life in colonial Virginia and the legacy of slavery in the US.

### ⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Heavy Reading
  

*by J***W on Reviewed in the United States on May 17, 2015*

A heavy book in all senses of the word.  Interesting material, not necessarily always told in an interesting manner. A good, but again not compellingly told, overview of women's rights or non-rights in the 18th C. But be sure to feel strong when reading it! It's VERY heavy, and the Kindle version does not have the maps or pictures of the printed version.
