    Ancestral Roots
    of Certain American Colonists Who Came To America Before 1700
    The Lineage of Alfred the Great,  Charlemagne, Malcolm of Scotland, Robert the Strong, and Some of Their  Descendants
    Volume totaling
    359
    pages. Book is in new  condition. Per the publisher.
    This is the eighth edition of the classic work on the  royal ancestry of certain colonists who came to America before the year 1700,  and it is the first new edition to appear since 1992, reflecting the change in  editorship from the late Walter Lee Sheppard, Jr. to his appointed successors  William and Kaleen Beall.
    Like the previous editions, it embodies the very latest  research in the highly specialized field of royal genealogy. As a result, out of  a total of 398 ancestral lines, 91 have been extensively revised and 60 have  been added, while almost all lines have had at least some minor corrections,  amounting altogether to a 30 percent increase in text. Previous discoveries have  now been integrated into the text and recently discovered errors have been  corrected. And for the first time, thanks to the efforts of the new editors,  this edition contains an every-name index, replacing the cumbersome indexes of  the past.
    In addition to Alfred the Great, Charlemagne, Malcolm of  Scotland, and Robert the Strong, descents in this work are traced from the  following ancestral lines: Saxon and English monarchs, Gallic monarchs, early  kings of Scotland and Ireland, kings and princes of Wales, Gallo-Romans and  Alsatians, Norman and French barons, the Riparian branch of the Merovingian  House, Merovingian kings of France, Isabel de Vermandois, and William de Warenne.
