Genealogy Book Recommendations #general

s_wiener@...
 

Hi, Genners,

My synagogue, Congregation Sherith-Israel, holds a
book fair every fall to coincide with Jewish Book
Month, [end of October-November.] I have volunteered
to provide a list of titles that anyone interested in
genealogy might purchase [either for him/herself or
for the congrgation library.]

So, I appeal to the group to please write back to me,
off-list, at shelliecee@yahoo.com, with any titles
that you think are essential to the beginner or any
pearls that you have come upon and have found
invaluable. Please - no book is too obvious or too
costly not to be considered by the committee.

Thanks for your assistance,
and L'Shana Tova Tiketevu,
Shellie Wiener
San Francisco, CA

MODERATOR NOTE: Several InfoFiles may contain useful suggestions for your
book fair. Check the list at <http://www.jewishgen.org/infofiles/#Books>.

I noted the Moderator's recommended list hasn't been updated since 2000,
which may account for the omission of the JGSPBC's 2003 IAJGS Award winning
Workbook, a compilation of Jewish genealogical resource material:

"Beginners and Intermediate Genealogical Workbook", edited by Sylvia
Furshman Nusinov, President Emerita of the Jewish Genealogical Society of
Palm Beach County, Inc.

Please reply privately to curiousyl@bellsouth.net.
