This morning I published on Kindle, “Practical Citation, A Guide to Simply and Safely Recording Sources and Citations.” Three editions are currently available: Reunion 10, Family Tree Maker 2014, and Family Tree Maker 3 (Mac).
Find them easily through my author page on Amazon US. The ebooks are also available through Amazon in other countries.
Even if you don’t have a Kindle, iPad, or other compatible device you can read the ebook. You simply download free Kindle reader software for your computer.
If you’d rather have a copy you can print you could join the Practical Citation community at PracticalCitation.com. Membership comes with PDF copies of all editions of the guide.
The RootsMagic 7 and Family Historian 6 editions will be available soon.
Buying the FTM3 worked fine.
Good to know Jack; thanks!
Let me know what you think of it.
Ben,
I have your “Practical Citations” and I am using Reunion. There is one item I would like to clarify. Under “Information Location”, pg. 26, you state, “The safe place for location information in Reunion 10 is in the citation “Detail field”. Will the “Detail field” be imported into FTM safely? I thought I had a copy of FTM, but apparently not. I know I had considered switching, but didn’t. Since you have done so much research on these two programs I’m sure you know the answer. Hoping to hear from you soon.
Thanks, Sheila Genser
Hi Sheila. Entries you make in Reunion’s citation detail field will import into FTM. They will appear in FTM’s citation detail field. —-Ben >@<
Hi, Wondering if you have an estimated time frame for Family Historian and Roots Magic versions of your book. Also, looking everywhere for a way to cite the 1901 and 1911 Census of Ireland. Found EE to be too complicated…and they have no suggestions for these sources. Do you address these in your book?
Also curious about a time frame for Legacy. Is there a version of your book coming out for that program?
It is just a shame that the Kindle version is only available on amazon.com for US custoer. Unavailable on their French site!
Ben
I note your comment about Rootsmagic but I also note that it was dated February 2015. As this is now October 2016 has there been any progress with Rootsmagic.

Having trouble getting hold of this. It is out of print?
