"... this is a well-written and rich resource". -- School Library
Journal review of A Student's Guide to British American Genealogy
This groundbreaking series is the first to explain the
"how-to's" of genealogical research in simple, jargon-free
language. The Oryx American Family Tree Series explores how to
research family history for 12 different ethnic groups. Each volume
begins with an overview of the group's historical and cultural
background, then guides readers through each step in tracing their
own genealogical heritage, with practical advice on how to
-- locate important family documents and other vital sources of
information
-- conduct interviews with family members and record eyewitness
accounts of key events
-- use the latest electronic research tools
-- research your background if you are adopted or come from a
nontraditional family
-- preserve family history for future generations
Each volume is written in a friendly, narrative style and is
extensively illustrated with full-color and black-and-white
photographs. Hundreds of valuable resources unique to each ethnic
group are also listed and annotated, including genealogical
organizations, books, magazines, journals, videos, and special
libraries and archives.
The Oryx American Family Tree Series provides an easy-to-follow
road map for anyone interested in tracing a family history -- from
junior high and high school students to adults who require a basic
primer. Every library will want to make this practical, highly
readable series available to its patrons.
Each volume is produced as a sturdy 6 x 9 casebound publication,
192 pages, and printed on acid-free paper.
