In search of your German roots : a complete guide to tracing your ancestors in the Germanic areas of Europe

In Search of Your German Roots is designed to help you trace your German ancestry not only in Germany but in all the German-speaking areas of Europe, from the Baltic to the Crimea, from the Czech Republic to Belgium. And it is designed so that you seldom have to leave your own home. It shows you how to conduct your research by correspondence and how to work in your own home, at your own pace, using the resources of libraries and archives or the records of church and state.
