Das Buch befasst sich mit der alten Familie der Schmid von Uri, beginnend vor der Gründung der Eidgenossenschaft bis in die heutige Zeit. Spezielles Gewicht legte der Autor auf den Vorfahren Jost Dietrich Schmid, der im August 1550 von Kaiser Karl V. in den Ritterstand erhoben wurde. Was die Urahnen betrifft, so stützt sich die Arbeit im Wesentlichen auf die Familiengeschichte von Landschreiber und Chronist Franz Vinzenz Schmid (1780). Als Chronist in der Tradition dieses Vorfahren versteht sich auch Christian Schmid. Mehrjährige Recherchen führten ihn v.a. in den Kanton Uri, aber auch in die Kantone Thurgau, Schwyz, Luzern und St. Gallen. Interessantes über diese Familie wurde so zutage gefördert und vor dem Versinken in den Archiven bewahrt. Der chronologische Aufbau des Buches entspricht den Reisen und Recherchen des Autors. Der Band ist ausgestattet mit über 100 Bildern.
