Forward to the P-R-S SeriesThe manuscript is divided into six books. In the first book, I speculate about the first 1000 years of the P-R-S family 1050 BCE to 50 BCE. The next book in this series will begin with Julius Caesar (50 BCE) and cover the Middle Ages and Renaissance in Europe (to about 1700 CE). In that book we will continue to follow the P-R-S family as it expands and diversifies. By 1700 CE, historical records begin to be relevant. The third book in this series will begin with some issues about 1600 CE in Europe and cover the period to 1800 CE and lay the foundation to the transition of the P-R-S family to North America. The fourth book begins the historically well-documented period of my branch of the P-R-S family in North America (1700-1775). The story continues in the fifth book (1775-1800), which focuses on the American War of Independence. The family history is concluded in the sixth book that covers the period 1800 to 1950 and includes the American War between the States and some fairly recent U.S. history. Overall, the process covers 1050 BCE to 1950 CE....three thousand years.Along the way, I have summarized history and discussed technology that I believe provide essential context for the story. In doing so, I have reinterpreted some historical facts, which I believe have been misconstrued in conventional analyses. History is usually presented as disconnected events; but I have attempted to provide a continuum of history because one event in history does flow into the next as each generation of the P-R-S family passes through the scene.
