It was an interesting read and told the history of the Evans family from ancient times in Britain until the time the book was written. The book was very interesting even though it wasn't a direct line to me after the Evans family left Britain. BATTLE HYMN OF EVANS (Tune: "Battle Hymn of the Republic" The ancient clan of Evans raised their standards to the sky; They held their name in honor and their aims were ever high; They always did their duty and were not afraid to die. The clan goes marching on! Chorus: Glory to the tribe of Evans! Glory to the name of Evans! "Pro Patria" our grand old family! The clan goes marching on!
