Format:Paperback
This is an excellent book - initially for OU - and so is written for the over 50 market. If an old is doing his family tree, then this is a must-have buy.
Goes through all the documents. their backgrounds and their present day uses
and mentions a few you may not have heard of, and where they are to be had.
Probably the most useful thing I have read in the Family History genre.

A must for any Genealogist or Family Historian
4 July 1998
Format:Hardcover
What can you say about a book that has everything! This is the final book of a series of four and takes one from the inception of a research project through to final publishing. For a Genealogist or Family Historian it's a godsend. Sources of information are discussed that the average researcher wouldn't dream existed. Once picked up, very hard to put down. Excellent!
