An Ideal Christmas Present:

HODGSON SAGA, published by Martlet Books, is of general interest to anyone with Hodgson ancestry. What is the meaning of the Hodgson surname? How was it formed? From where does it originate? Who were the ancestors of the original Hodgsons? Where did they come from? This book answers all these questions.

HODGSON SAGA is a 112 page book, including index etc., with A4 (21cm x 30cm) size pages, hardback bound with an attractive dust cover. The text is over 57,000 words and there are dozens of pictures, tables and maps. The volume is the definitive text on the Hodgson surname and the Hodgson heritage.

The second edition is fully updated and revised, including information on the ongoing Hodgson DNA Project.
