A practical guide to writing family history, designed especially for family historians and inexperienced writers.
Researching family trees and genealogies has never been more popular, and there is a huge range of courses, books and websites to assist the amateur researcher. The problem is, while family historians may be enthusiastic and skilled researchers, very often they don't have writing skills and the task of writing their family history defeats them.
This book offers a practical, straightforward guide to help people write their family history in an interesting and accessible way. A no-nonsense guide for the non-writer, this guide offers a simple, step-by-step approach to writing family history and will be invaluable to anyone who has researched family history and now wants to write it down: family historians; local, state and national genealogical organisations; local and community historians; students of writing programs; teachers of writing and libraries.
