Waters, opus consists largely of copies of lengthy abstracts of wills in the  Prerogative Court of Canterbury which bear some relation to early American families. In  addition, it contains genealogical notes and pedigrees, maps, tabular charts, illustrations, and an  index of 30,000 names as well as a fifty-one page index of places, with details of where many of  the early families settled. Furthermore, as John T. Hassam noted in the Introduction to the work,  "These pages contain wills relating not only to New England families, but to those of Virginia,  Maryland, South Carolina, New York, Pennsylvania, and the West Indies. These researches, in  short, have been conducted in no narrow spirit, and they should interest everyone of English  descent in every part of our country."

<p>As outspoken in his day as Richard Dawkins or Christopher Hitchens are today, American freethinker and author ROBERT GREEN INGERSOLL (1833-1899) was a notorious radical whose uncompromising views on religion and slavery (they were bad, in his opinion), women's suffrage (a good idea, he believed), and other contentious matters of his era made him a wildly popular orator and critic of 19th-century American culture and public life. As a speaker dedicated to expanding intellectual horizons and celebrating the value of skepticism, Ingersoll spoke frequently on such topics as atheism, freedom from the pressures of conformity, and the lives of philosophers who espoused such concepts. This collection of his most famous speeches includes the lectures: [ "The Gods" (1872) [ "Humboldt" (1869) [ "Thomas Paine" (1870) [ "Individuality" (1873) [ "Heretics and Heresies" (1874)</p>
