Excerpt from The Memoirs of Ann, Lady Fanshawe, Wife of the Right Honble: Sir Richard Fanshawe, 1600-72 Charge the editor can only plead that they are intended to supply a full setting to the picture of the Memoirs from the sides of both general history and of family annals. To illustrate the former he has included many facts and incidents which are not to be found, as a rule, in the standard works upon the seventeenth century, especially where they have particular reference to matters mentioned in the Memoirs. As regards the latter, he has borne in mind that the Memoirs are primarily a family record, and that it has long been desired by the present members of the family that its history down to the end of that century should be adequately commemorated while a deeper interest in it than is likely to be felt by succeeding generations still survives. A pedigree of the family down to the present time is printed at the end of the Volume. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
