This archival documentary, which opens with a ten-minute period drama about the importance of Williamsburg in 1774, explains the mission of John D. Rockefeller, Jr., and Dr. W.A.R. Goodwin in the 1920s to restore Williamsburg. This vast undertaking led to mid-century historical interpretation about the importance of the people and ideas of Williamsburg that forged a new nation.
History lives and breathes as we uncover more about our collective past. As a result of discovery, the way we tell this story continues to evolve. Enjoy this peek into the first 25 years of Colonial Williamsburg. More Info
