COLLINS TRACING YOUR HOME'S HISTORY door Anthony Adolph

Does what it says on the tin, and does it well.

This is a well-structured and easily-read manual on tracing the history of your home in the UK.

Along the way, there are some very helpful explanatory graphics, such as the timeline of useful sources on pg. 16, the samples of old handwriting compared against modern handwriting on pg. 42 and a list of useful addresses on pp. 262 et seq.
