"Faithful are the wounds of friends," especially when they are embezzlers, forgers, and confidence men like Thomas Powell, who after escaping criminal prosecution in England abused his former friend and defender in 'Living Authors of England' (1849). Dickens retaliated and the affair ended in lawsuits and, the editors argue in their spirited and informed introduction and headnotes to these eighty or so documents, in the inspiration for the Carker brothers, Uriah Heep, and Jarndyce and Jarndyce."NINETEENTH-CENTURY LITERATURE

This books focus is on the European side of his fathers line in England and maybe France, while his mothers side is from France and Germany, and not discussed very much. Most of the content is from documents mostly in the County Suffolk, England area and the book begins with the history of this PAGE line in Normandy, France area around the year 900 to the arrival of PAGE Family C in Virginia in the middle 1600s. He published CAROLINA PAGEs in 1990 which was about his PAGE line that arrived in Virginia in middle 1600s as they moved to North Carolina, then South Carolina, then Georgia, then Florida where he was born. Since DNA arrived on the scene in early 2000, much of the paper trail has been verified. DNA has provided about 15 different PAGE lines and around 44 individuals most of which have the surname PAGE in the PAGE Line C. Photographs are provided of the many English houses that the PAGE family lived in beginning in early 1400 to date.
