520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc. "Tobacco in Colonial Virginia" by G. Melvin Herndon is a historical account written in the late 20th century. This work delves into the pivotal role of tobacco cultivation and trade in shaping the economic and social landscape of Virginia from the early days of the Jamestown settlement. It focuses on key figures such as John Rolfe, who famously introduced tobacco cultivation to the English colonists, and examines the rise and expansion of the tobacco industry as a significant staple crop in the colony. The opening of the book provides a nuanced introduction to the history of tobacco in Virginia, tracing its origins from initial importation in England to its establishment as a cash crop in the colonies. It discusses early interactions with Indigenous peoples, specifically noting the cultivation practices they employed, and highlights John Rolfe’s successful experiment with Spanish tobacco seeds, which led to significant growth in Virginia's tobacco production. The narrative sets the context for the subsequent chapters by outlining the initial challenges colonists faced and their adaptation methods that helped transform tobacco into Virginia’s "sovereign remedy," underscoring its profound impact on the colony's development.
