GUIDE TO PRINTED BOOKS AND MANUSCRIPTS RELATING TO ENGLISH AND FOREIGN HERALDRY AND GENEALOGY. By George Gatfield. Originally published at London, 1892. 646 pages.

Best known to genealogists as "Gatfield's Guide" this is a classic reference work for the serious genealogist. Containing an estimated 15,000 bibliographic references, it is an essential source of information on titles published in the last century and even earlier. Individual sections are included for most European countries and America, listing local histories and general references. Each English county has a separate, comprehensive section. Approximately 6000 family history books and pedigrees are also listed, from all parts of Europe and America. Many of the references include the call number or manuscript number, and the name of at least one institution where the referenced material can be found. This is the best available guide to rare and scarce genealogical material, especially for the British Isles.
