Here you'll meet the people and situations you're already familiar with, or about to become familiar with-the BORE, the BLUEBLOOD, the OLD MASTER, and the BRIEFCASE MAGNET, and a clutch of dissembling officials, wet-nosed beginners, and tongue-clucking harridans-but this time the meeting will drive you wild with laughter. You'll learn about the latest techniques employed by county clerks in repelling genealogists, about projector fatigue, and about acceptable and unacceptable behavior in graveyards. You'll read about the sins of the D. A. R. , research trip survival tactics, sadism in the county courthouses and the National Archives, the banality of workshops and seminars, the proper etiquette in prying information from reluctant relatives, and much, much more. Guaranteed to keep you sane and keep you laughing.
