This article presents information about the book "Institutional History of Virginia in the Seventeenth Century," by Philip Alexander Bruce. In the volumes which Bruce has written on life in Virginia in the seventeenth century one has an encouraging sign of the passing of the old-fashioned local history. In these volumes Bruce includes all subjects that he could not bring into his former books on economic and social life. These subjects are religion and morals, education, legal administration, military system, and political conditions, including taxation, and all are presented with skillfulness of treatment, vividness of description, and excellence at style.
