This price at the link below is a little less, at the moment, than the published price on the copy that I borrowed from our library. http://www.amazon.com/Evidence-Explained-History-Artifacts-Cyberspace/dp/0806318066/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1309149336&sr=8-1 Regards, Janet Stoneking Westerville, Ohio, US ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kay Williams" <kay...@bigpond.com> To: <LegacyUserGroup@LegacyUsers.com> Sent: Sunday, June 26, 2011 12:13 AM Subject: RE: [LegacyUG] Sourcewriter Can you advise publishing details of the book 'Evidence Explained' please Robert?

Carneal [mailto:kentuckygenealog...@gmail.com] Sent: Sunday, 26 June 2011 04:49 AM To: LegacyUserGroup@LegacyUsers.com Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Sourcewriter Do you have copy of Elizabeth Shown Mills's "Evidence Explained"? SourceWriter is largely based on that book. As helpful as SourceWriter is to me, I find myself reading the book for a better understanding. SourceWriter is a template driven sourcing system that makes it easy for you to select the correct input screen so that you enter all the pieces needed to correctly cite any source of information in the thousands of formats that exist for them. The information you enter is correctly and precisely formatted to match the genealogy industry standards for source citations. SourceWriter allows the user to simply enter complete details about a source, without having to resort to the book to get the proper format. If you wish, you can stop using SourceWriter. I am assuming you have just one or two sources you made using Sourcewriter, just a few anyway? If you no longer wanted them, what I would do is write them down. And delete them. Then re-enter them using the simple sourcing system. Professional biographers and genealogist will note much more information in their sources than most people who want to use just the simple source system ever will. I changed all my sources over to SourceWriter, and it was a long task. I am glad I did. But I referred to "Evidence Explained" quite a bit. Thank you.
