This book serves as a valuable reminder of the degree to which Virginia's history is America's history.-- Journal of Southern History A major contribution is Wallenstein's emphasis on the history of Virginia from the late 19th into the 21st century. Another is his discussion of issues much larger than Virginia, which dramatically affected, if not changed, the course of its history.-- Choice Wallenstein's prose makes reading about our history enjoyable.-- Roanoke Times Cradle of America is so good you'll wonder why in Jefferson's name it was published by KU Press and not UVA Press. . . . This ain't your mama's textbook. It is lively, unafraid, real and credible.-- Blue Ridge Business Journal, "This book serves as a valuable reminder of the degree to which Virginia's history is America's history."-- Journal of Southern History "A major contribution is Wallenstein's emphasis on the history of Virginia from the late 19th into the 21st century.
