Of it, Krick writes, "The largest part of his book, and its most important material, concerns Massey's political experiences in post-war Virginia. The parson provides intelligent commentary, liberally sprinkled with lengthy original documents, concerning his leadership in the Readjustor movement, his term as lieutenant governor, and his intimate associations with the state's leading men" Neale Books 317.
