Excerpt from An Historical Account of Some Memorable Actions, Particularly in Virginia: Also Against the Admiral of Algier, and in the East Indies: Performed for the Service of His Prince and Country At a meeting of the Joint Library Committee of the Legislature of Virginia, held February 18, 1882, Colonel Sherwin McRae, the Librarian, presented the following report concerning the book now reprinted: "The volume containing 'The Memorable Actions of Sir Thomas Grantham, Particularly in Virginia, ' is for the Library a most fortunate acquisition, throwing much light, as it does, on a part of the history of Virginia on which historians and scholars differ. This merit alone would demand its purchase, but in addition, there is good reason to believe that this copy which the Library possesses is the only one in existence This fact (if so), independently of the intrinsic worth of the book, greatly increases its money value."
