The Book of Uncles
Uncles
For years now, I’ve been threatening to undertake two projects aimed at my grandchildren:
  • A genealogy manual for children, entitled Goldilocks and Her Forebears.
  • This Book of Uncles.
Over the past nine hundred years or so, our grandchildren (ten of ’em, as of 2008) have had a startling variety of interesting uncles. Either by blood or by marriage, these men are part of our heritage. Hugely diverse: some famous, some obscure; mostly admirable, some debatable, and a couple just regrettable. But all interesting.

In addition to the generic section, I put together a personalized version for each grandchild and sent those around for Christmas. On June 24, 2008, I published the generic PDF; it’s embedded below:
