There is also a select bibliography, sources valuable to researchers, passenger lists and points of entry to the United States. But be aware that the book was published in 1977 and many sources no longer exist or have changed name or address. However, for German immigration, she lists two of the best sources: Strassburger's Pennsylvania German pioneers and Rupp's A collection of thirty thousand names.
The chapter on family health history is most important. With genetic diseases and tendencies that run in families, Westin advocates documenting everything you can.
This book is still helpful to amateur genealogists and should be consulted, even in the age of the Internet. ( )
