"Statute Law in Colonial Virginia: Governors, Assemblymen, and the Revisals that Forged the Old Dominion is an examination of the seven times Virginia's General Assembly revised the colony's statutes between 1632 and 1748. These revisals are a way to gauge how governors, councillors, and burgesses created a hybrid body of colonial statute law that would become the longest strand in the American legal fabric. His study provides insight into the colonial legislative process, the Assembly's statutory craftsmanship, and the ways in which assemblymen continually used their unbridled discretion to cement the position of elite colonists. There are also biographical sketches of colonial Virginia's leading politicians to provide context for the legislative processes"--
