While browsing and Googling today, I ran across the Masthof Annual Catalog of genealogy books. There are many titles here from large, small and personal publishers, and many are specific to the Lancaster PA area, the Amish and Mennonite settlements. It is in a PDF file format. The Table of Contents is:
Amish........................................................... 2
Anabaptism ................................................ 5
Biographies and Novels ............................. 6
Brethren .................................................... 15
Children’s Books ....................................... 16
Computers and Genealogy ...................... 20
Cookbooks ................................................ 21
Europe ...................................................... 22
Genealogy ................................................. 28
Genealogy Reference ............................... 43
Genealogy Supplies ................................. 49
Local History ........................................... 50
Maps and Atlases .................................... 67
Mennonite Culture and History ............. 69
Mennonites, Russian .............................. 74
Miscellaneous ......................................... 74
Miscellaneous Family ............................ 83
Quilts and Quilting ................................ 86
Toys ......................................................... 86
Videos ..................................................... 88
Surname Index........................................88
Author Index............................................93
Title Index................................................96
These are mainly books, each title has a complete citation with price, and a short summary of the contents. You can order them from Masthof at 219 Mill Road, Morgantown, PA 19543-9516. The telephone number is (610) 286-0258. Orders can also be sent via fax: (610) 286-6860. Consult their web page for more ordering information.
I thought that this was a wonderful resource to have available online. It is a great example of how a business - or a genealogy society - can market their paper products online.
