This 2009 edition, twice the size of the first (published in 1995), contains ancestor tables for each president from Washington to Obama; the best royal descents of each president and first lady; more than 150 charts outlining kinships between presidents; and appendixes for kin and "kin-of-kin" to Pocahontas, presidential Mayflower lines, and connections to the modern British royal family and European royal families.
