Diggin' Up Gold On The Old Paper Trail - A Workbook For Investigatin' Folks by Don Ray

Yes, there's information gold along the Old Public Records Trail. Always has been. Problem was, it just took too dang long to pan for it. the gold was buried deep in the mountains of paper records stored over there at the courthouse, the city hall or over yonder at the state or federal building. It took a lot of diggin' and pannin', but those who went to the trouble of hauling the stuff to the assay office usually ended up glad they did.

The smart ones kept their claims to themselves. Why let other folks find out about the rich, mother lode of golden information that was free for the takin' in government offices?

But it wasn't that long ago some of those big corporate folks with all their money came along and made it a lot easier to mine the information. In fact, they started finding ways of mining it for you, and then actually delivering it to you. Heck, pretty soon everybody's uncle was jumpin' on the information train. Before too long those carpetbagger corporate folks were passing the stuff out on every street corner. Access to the information gold was so easy, even kids could get in on the act. So many newbies flocked in that it practically forced us old-timers out of the business.

Just like steam drills, the new corporate computer systems started delivering the golden indeed right into people's offices. The folks just getting introduced to the public records indexes on computer databases, CD-ROMs and the Internet will make you think there could be no gold more pure - but we old-timers know the real story.

We know because we've gotten our hands dirty diggin through the mountains of records. We know there is a lot of go;ld those newfangled computers can't give you. We've been to the Land of Source Documents. They're a dying breed, those old-time public records prospectors. But there's room for a few of y'all who want to dig a lot deeper and cash in a lot quicker. Light that gas lamp there on your helmet, take a deep breath and start tapping into the vein of golden information.

this workbook will help get you equipped. Don't fret over the musty smell.
