They Came in Ships: A Guide to Finding Your Immigrant Ancestor's Arrival Record

Good book, obviously dated by now but with enough immigration shipping details to make it still worth while.

Great resource for researchers. I loved how the author divided the book into sections: Before 1820 and After 1820.

The 1993 edition doesn't allude to Internet use, so it's not going to appeal to many. If you're working with the microfilm passenger records, this is excellent in pointing the way.

I found this book to be a great foundation builder to begin the thought process of where immigrant and emigrant can be found.

Good reference.

A must have work by a great lecturer and educator.
