The Sunny Side of Genealogy
by Fonda D. Baselt

A humorous collection of anecdotes, poems, wills, epitaphs, and other genealogy tidbits. Included are gems such as "Old genealogists never die, they just lose the census," and this genealogist's description of the ignominious death by hanging of an ancestor: "He died during a public ceremony, when the platform upon which he was standing collapsed beneath him."

This book is filled with tempting morsels that will entice you to join in the fun and compile your own collection.
