Marian Hoffman, EditorDevoted specifically to U.S. sources and resources--books that contain
reference literature and source material of a localized nature--this is the
first of two volumes listing genealogical books in print that deal with U.S.
regions, states, counties, towns, and smaller municipalities. Consistent with
the format of the other volumes in the opus, this work starts with coverage of
the five major regions of the U.S.--New England, Mid-Atlantic, the South, the
Mid-West, and the West--and proceeds alphabetically through the States of
Alabama through New York; therein books are arranged under a statewide and
regional heading or by county, in alphabetical order. Besides the standard
listings, many entries contain brief descriptions of the books; and in a number
of cases, where books have been produced or reprinted by two or more vendors,
the reader has a choice of formats and prices to choose from.
