Bumping to top and bottom of spine and corners of boards, with fraying to top and bottom of spine and resultant slight loss, but nothing to interfere with the titling etc. Slight cracking to hinges at end papers and at main title page, but book is secure.

The author has detailed the Rede line and connections from such places as Shipton, Ipsden, Brocket, Wales, America, Cheshire, The New Forest, Folkestone Galway etc. etc. Also included are numerous 'Tables of Royal Descents' detailing how the family has connections with royalty through such as John of Gaunt, King Alexander of Scotland, Edward I, Robert Bruce etc. etc. Illustrated with black and white photographs of various members of the Reade (Rede, Read) families. There are occasional pencilled margin notes within the book, presumably inserted by a previous owner.
