Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from An Old Soldier's Memories
Like another illustrious personage connected with the Principality, I was born at Carnarvon. For this I take no credit to myself. Good and sufficient documentary evidence exists to enable me to fix the date of the important event as April 28, 1830.
Those of my readers interested in my pedigree are referred to Burke: I h0pe they will understand it. For my own part, as will be seen in a note to Nicolas' History of Welsh County Families, I was content to believe in my descent from Adam, but since reading Darwin I new claim kinsmanship with the biggest and oldest Vertebrate ever created. Please note Vertebrate, as I do not own connection with anything that has not a backbone.
