Author: The author is unknown in this specific website source.
Audience: The audience for this document is intended for those who are researching about Bacon's Rebellion and wanting to know more information about it.
Tone: The tone of this document was explanatory/straight forward. The author talked about the tobacco price decreasing and how it affected the trading business. It was hard to tell what the author really was trying to say because the information that was written had to do with how the rebellion started. I didn't see the author opinions in the document to tell what he/she was trying to say.
Purpose: The purpose of this document it to inform readers about why Bacon's Rebellion happened and the factors that contributed to the rebellion.
Ethos: The credibility of this document seems to be trusted because below the document are several links that the author used in putting this document together. Also, the author includes a reference. This information shows me that the author took information from other sources and put the information together in one document.
Pathos: The emotion that I got from this document was dull, and explanatory. I was able to capture the author's voice in some parts of the document. This document in general explains the reasons why Bacon's Rebellion started and what happened after. The author could of made the document easier to read by including a persuasive emotion to the reader.
Logic: The logic in this document explains how certain countries were not allowed to trade with the Virginia colony. It also explains how the tobacco prices went down and how Bacon accused Governor Berkley favoring the Indians to make profit out of them.
