Excerpt from Lion Gardiner, and His Descendants: With Illustrations, Edited, With Notes Critical and Illustrative

Modern research has not eliminated a single valuable trait from the character of Lion Gardiner, nor detracted from any act in his career, but it has lifted the Veil which had obscured much of the history of the early generations of his descendants.

Part first contains a reprint of the Papers and of Lion Gardiner, published by me in 1883, revised, corrected, and enlarged by the addition of new matter, with illustrations.

Part second is made up of family records - comprising eight generations traced, with some account of the ninth and the tenth and latest generation from Lion Gardiner.
