I began to write stories about particularly noteworthy persons in our genealogical tree. In some of the stories, the names, dates, and happenings are true. In other stories, the names are slightly tweaked. In a couple of the stories, the happenings are purely creative, although a specific personage is peeking through the lines.I wrote several of the stories in this book, but others are ghost written by family members who are now floating on the other side. How wonderful to read the thoughts and emotions of ones from times past!

When forensic genealogist Morton Farrier accepted an invitation to travel to Salt Lake City, Utah, to speak at the RootsTech genealogy conference, he had been unaware that one of his co-panellists was to be none other than his former girlfriend, Madison Scott- Barnhart. Whilst he prepares anxiously to meet her for what will be the first time in twenty- six years—and hopefully to discover the unresolved truth behind her abrupt ending of their relationship—he takes on the case of researching his wife’s mysterious great- grandfather: a man who deserted his Sussex family shortly after the First World War. In the course of his investigations and time in the States, Morton uncovers some shocking truths, some of which are uncomfortably close to home…

ISBN: 9789042004283

Saglia, a scholar of some sort whose academic affiliations are not noted, charts the various ways in which, between the 1810s and 1820s, Spain figured in British literary culture. Mainly concerned with narrative versions of Spain, specifically metrical tales and verse romances, he traces the contours of the Spanish "imaginary" in British Romanticism, offering a cultural geography of Romantic Spain as a space of war involving not only France and Britain or the Spanish and Moorish armies, but ideological conflicts between public and private; republicanism, nationalism, and imperialism; and competing models of masculinity and femininity.
