Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Richard Croker
One is not to suppose, however, for that it is com mon as a genealogical feat in New York City, Richard Croker in his ancestry is here to be back-tracked to the Norman. One is sure of the Croker lin'e no further away than Cromwell. Still, this is well; for Cromwell himself in his day was quite a comfortable form of conqueror; and it is better than an even chance, had he been at Hastings that far hour instead of Harold, bold William with his ambitions would have gone limping back to France.
