Description

This is the story of one family through several centuries. The author is one of the Sisam family and has researched its ROOTS AND BRANCHES over many years. It is in a way a social history, for it portrays how people lived during times when great events and changes took place. In these years the family spread from craftsmen, farming and corn milling stock into many walks of life and to other lands. Readers are led through villages and towns in the heart of England, in Gloucestershire, Worcestershire and Warwickshire.

They travel with emigrants in covered wagons to the American West, observe the Maori Wars in New Zealand, and see the development of cattle, dairying, horse breeding, sheep and forestry. Above all they are brought close to the hearts of these emigrants and of those who remained and lived rewarding lives in the green fields of England.

Fully illustrated, this is a book to last and be treasured.
