Book Synopsis The Byrds of Virginia by : Alden Hatch
Book excerpt: The Byrds of Virginia are among the most powerful and influential families in this country--and are also one of the oldest. The first Byrd ("William I") settled in Virginia in 1670 and was the founder of the Byrd dynasty that is vigorously represented today by Senator Harry F. Byrd, Jr. Now, eminent author Alden Hatch, with style, wit and extraordinary scholarship, traces the history of the Byrds from 1670 to the present in one of the most engrossing and important biographies of an American family to appear in many years. -- Front book flap
