British Virginia

British Virginia is a VCU-hosted series of scholarly editions of documents touching on the colony. These texts range   from the 16th and 17th-century literature of English exploration to the 19th-century writing of loyalists and other   Virginians who continued to identify with Great Britain. Editions appear principally in digital form, freely downloadable.
