The Wills of Our Ancestors: A Guide for Family & Local Historians (Family History from Pen & Sword) by Stuart A. Raymond
An excellent background to the laws relating to wills, administrations, and what can be gleaned from them. Also some useful background on where to find wills (including peculiars, etc). However, where it falls down is regarding online resources, which, as with so many printed books, is now well out of date.
A reference book. Limited interest to the average reader.
