Publisher's Synopsis
""A White Guard To Satan"" is a historical account written by Elizabeth Godstowe, detailing her own experiences and observations during the tumultuous period of Bacon's Rebellion in Virginia in 1676. The book provides a first-hand account of the events that occurred during the rebellion, including the political and social tensions that led to the uprising, as well as the violence and chaos that ensued. Godstowe's narrative is compelling and vivid, offering readers an intimate look into the lives of those who lived through this period of unrest. The title of the book references the fact that Godstowe, as a loyalist to the English crown, was seen by some of the rebels as a ""white guard"" protecting the interests of Satan, who they believed was behind the corrupt government that they were rebelling against. Overall, ""A White Guard To Satan"" is a fascinating historical document that sheds light on a little-known period of American history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
