A general-reader friend asked me to recommend a book or two about the colonial-era expansion of English settlement up the James. Something that treats the rest of the colonial era like Charles E. Hatch's The First Seventeen Years: Virginia, 1607-1624 would be perfect. Nothing quite right leaps to mind (and too many that do, boggle it). Suggestions anyone?
