Let Me Lie: Being in the Main an Ethnological Account of the Remarkable Commonwealth of Virginia and the Making of Its History - The Virginia Bookshelf Univ Pr of Virginia Ed. edition
James Branch Cabell
When this work was first published in 1947, most reviewers missed the double meaning of the book's title. It is indeed a history of Virginia from 1559 to 1946 - focusing on Tidewater, Richmond and the Northern Neck - but it shows that Virginia's story of itself depends on illusion and myth.
