The
County Courthouse Book
is a concise guide to county courthouses and courthouse records. It is an      important book because the genealogical researcher needs a reliable guide to      American county courthouses, the main repositories of county records. To      proceed in his investigations, the researcher needs current addresses and      phone numbers, information about the coverage and availability of key      courthouse records such as probate, land, naturalization, and vital records,      and timely advice on the whole range of services available at the      courthouse. Where available he will also need listings of current websites      and e-mail addresses.
He will also need to know whether search services are      provided, the fees involved, and whether there are alternative locations for      the records. And if he's a diligent researcher, he'll need to know something      about the origins of the county itself--names of parent counties, dates of      formation, former names, etc.
Such is the kind of guidebook required, and such is      Elizabeth P. Bentley's
County Courthouse Book
, now in its third      edition, the first edition to provide websites and e-mail addresses. Besides      its obvious genealogical uses, the
County Courthouse Book
can also be      used for land title searches, legal investigations, questions of property      rights and inheritance, and indeed personal searches and investigations of      all kinds. But it is the genealogist who stands to benefit most from the      book because it offers a concise guide to the county courthouses and      courthouse records which are the main focus of his research.
This new 3rd edition of the
County Courthouse Book
is a complete overhaul of the 2nd edition of 1995, and it is up-to-date and      more useful than ever.

Genealogical &  Local History Books in Print: U.S. Sources & Resources Volume. Alabama-New York
Fifth Edition
Marian Hoffman, ed.
Softbound    volume  totaling
573
pages. Book  is in new condition. Just what you need  for genealogy research. Per the publisher;
Devoted 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.

Fifth Edition
Marian Hoffman
Softbound    volume  totaling
525
pages. Book  is in new condition. Just what you need  for genealogy research. Per the publisher;
The concluding volume of the two-part
U.S. Sources      and Resources
component of
G&LHBIP
, this one picks up with the      genealogical and local history sources and resources for the State of North      Carolina and continues alphabetically through Wyoming.
This book also represents the fourth and final volume      of the entire opus, which, in the aggregate, may be said to provide the      researcher with an unparalleled buying guide--a giant catalogue of      commercially, corporately, and privately published books on genealogy and      local history that are presently in print. It would be virtually impossible      for anyone to put all this information together by him or herself, and there      is no institution in the world that can furnish comparable data. If your      research calls for tracking down and purchasing books on genealogy and local      history, this work is absolutely indispensable.
