Product Description
Comprising a full historical and genealogical account of all peerages created in England, Scotland and Ireland between the Conquest and the early 20th century, the text includes details of every peer's birth, parents, honors, offices, marriage, death and burial. Footnotes include additional detail, dealing with individual's wills, incomes, royal charters, rent rolls, illegitimate children, romances, treason, public achievements, works of art and works of literature. Firts published in eight volumes between 1887 and 1898, the work was replaced between 1910 and 1959 by a new edition in 13 volumes. This new edition is printed in a more manageable, four-page to view, six-volume set. Although compressed, there is no need for a magnifying glass.
