BOOK REVIEWS
V sClimbing the Family Tree. Volume I. By Bessie Lamar Anderson
p Calvert. Privately printed in limited edition in Plant City,
Florida, 1966, by the author. Volume II. By Bessie Lamar
Anderson. Privately printed in limited edition in Plant City,
Florida, 1967, by the author. Volume I, and Volume II, have been
arranged and the art work done by Mrs. Calvert's brother, Marshall
Patton Anderson.
The beauty and excellence of the research done in these two
volumes of genealogical history are awesome. Never has your reviewer
seen such fine work as in every detail of these two books.
They are literally works of art.
Mrs. Calvert was inspired in her work when, in 1927, she was
invited to become a member of the National Society, Daughters of
the American Revolution. The DAB has inspired many of our best
genealogists on their road to genealogical glory!
Volume I is concerned with the families of Anderson, Drake,
Buchanan, Patton, Massie, Calvert, Overton, Waters, Mills, Clopton,
and Booth. Volume II contains the genealogy of the families of
Jordan, Weyman, Pettus, Dabney, Etheridge, Hardison, Duggan,
Smithwick, Greene, Bass, Hunt, Batte, Mallory, Lound, Stratton,
and Shepey.
Your reviewer understands that the excellent History and
Genealogy Department of the Houston Public Library has received
these fine books. When you are in Houston, be sure to look at
them and see for yourself their delight.
