Inhaltsangabe

The origins of Clarke County—how it came to be, and why—are examined here for the first time. Historian Warren R. Hofstra not only tells the story of the people who made Clarke County a separate place but also puts the movement for its formation in the context of Virginia and U.S. politics. It is a story fascinating in detail and rich in implication, for the issues that strained old Frederick to the breaking point—local control vs. an expanded federal government, conformity vs. pluralism, agrarian values vs. commercial pursuits—are still featured in the political debates today both regionally and nationally.
