Books of Genealogical Interest

This service is being provided in order to make available books that otherwise may be difficult to obtain. Unless specifically stated, the books are not new. The price may reflect their condition which will normally be reasonable, taking into account their age and circumstance. However, any unusual situations will be highlighted as part of the description.

The service is still in its infancy and many improvements will be made as the service progresses. As such, the initial stock of books will be small but it is anticipated that this will increase in the future. Only books actually in stock will be listed. Please visit regularly in order to view the latest offerings.
