Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Most people cringe at the thought of marrying a cousin. They think of it as a backwoods, hillbilly tradition and would never even consider it. But, surprisingly, it is still legal to marry first cousins in many states across the nation. Even more surprising, many notable people throughout time married their cousins. This book takes a look at this marriage between close relatives and details the lives of those who did. Take a look inside to find out who kept the family tree in mind when selecting a mate.
