I just found the most fun genealogy book called The Slueth Book for Genealogists: Strategies for more successful family history research, by Emily Anne Croom. What is fun is that it is full of advice from great literary detectives such as Sherlock Holmes, Hercule Poirot, Miss Marple, and others- quotes all over the place relevant to the subject. I love it! One famous quote by Hercule Poiroit is "He is insane, of course, I imagine that the genealogy has become a mania with him." Another one of his is "It is a little like your puzzle, Madame. One assembles the pieces..and every strange-shaped little piece must be fitted into its own place..And sometimes it is like that piece of your puzzle just now. One arranges very methodically the pieces of the puzzle-one sorts the colours-and then perhaps a piece of one colour that should fit in with- say, the fir rug, fits in instead with the black cat's tail.? There are several people who write genealogy mysteries and I think anyone who enjoys a good mystery, would enjoy this breath of fresh air. Sue
