Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A History of the Broaddus Family: From the Time of the Settlement of the Progenitor of the Family in the United States Down to the Year 1888
The genealogical chapters even of the Bible are very dry reading, and a similar array of names in any other book must be even less interesting. The author has tried to break the monotony of such dull reading, in the present volume, by recording incidents of family history which seem to have some interest, and by efforts at the delinea tion of character. The extent to which he has succeeded must, of necessity, be left to the judgment of the reader. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
