Even those with no known connection to the Tipperary Cardens will
enjoy
this
book if they get it out of their local library:
Chronicles of the Frigate Macedonian, by James Tertius de Kay.
Norton,
1995.
Many pages are devoted to the period when Captain (later Admiral) John
Surman
Carden was in command, leading up to his surrender to the US frigate
under
Captain Decatur in 1812. It contains plenty of facts new to me.
Dave Carden Larkin, a descendent of the same branch, told me about this
enjoyable book.
