Excerpt from A Guide to Jersey and Guernsey: Including the Neighbouring Islands of Alderney, Serk, Herm, and Jethou; With a Map of All the Islands

T an origin of small states can seldom be correctly ascertained. Absorbed in the history of larger territories, they seldom become objects. Of notice; and when they have engaged the attention of any early writer, the account transmitted to posterity is generally a tissue of facts and fable, so interwoven as to render it difficult and frequently impossible to distinguish the one from the other.
