Not a book for someone looking how to "do" genealogy., July 21 1999
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Cite Your Sources: A Manual for Documenting Family Histories and Genealogical Records (Paperback)
For a book on such an important subject with regards to genealogy, I was a little disappointed. While there are ample examples throughout book, this book is out-of-date for today's genealogist. No mention of electronic sources and how to document. Save your money and buy "Evidence: Citation and Analysis for the Family Historian" by Elizabeth Shown Mills. Ms. Mills refers to Lackey's book countless times and gives better examples.

Now Obsolete. Mills' Evidence!... is the latest., Aug 5 1999
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Cite Your Sources: A Manual for Documenting Family Histories and Genealogical Records (Paperback)
This was THE authority on the subject, however Elizabeth Shown Mills' book Evidence! Citation and Analysis for the Family Historian is better.

Outdated?, Dec 6 2000
By Morgan E. Johnson - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Cite Your Sources: A Manual for Documenting Family Histories and Genealogical Records (Paperback)
This book is well thought out and accurate; however, it is somewhat outdated for today's researcher. There are no mentions of web/Internet data. The formats suggested for the Works Cited or footnotes section of a genealogist's publication are somewhat archaic.
Listmania!
