Article description: (description)
This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | As a family historian, you have probably already acquired, over time, various books and reference materials for ancestral areas, materials that made your searching faster and more focused. Joy Reisinger’s chapter “The Essential Library” in Professional Genealogy gives good advice on choosing both general and more specific publications. When adding to the backbone of your collection, choice should not be predicated on which of two or three similar books has the lowest price. Keeping up with book reviews in major journals is a good way to make some judgments—and we mean critical reviews, not the “book notices” printed in many newsletters that are called reviews. |
