The choice is up to the individual user. The only exceptions are this page and those specifically written for Teachers and Students. These can only be accessed through the Home Page. The TIMEBASE™ and its ANALYTICAL CHRONOGRAPHY™ are the heart of our proprietary CHRONOGRAPHY™ system. Most research should be initiated at or near the beginning of its Timeline. You can then use your browser's "Find" or "Search" icon to locate specific information on almost any subject, person, place, date, or thing you wish to investigate or learn more about. 1. As a general rule it is better to keep your "find" or "search" parameters as simple as possible. When searching for Proper Names, enter only the last name or a single word for the most inclusive possible search. The only exceptions are very common names such as Smith or Brown. In such cases, use the following form: James Brown (first name first). 2. When searching for Dates, use the following form: 1943 September 19 (year month day) Do not use commas or abbreviations. If the user wishes to scan all of the events in a particular year, simply type in the year and hit enter. After it has been located, scroll through the timeline at will. The user may then click on any item to view its associated audio, video or photographic material. 3. The NEXT PAGE link is anchored to different pages depending on the page from which you select it. For example: the NEXT PAGE button on the Home Page brings to this page, while the NEXT PAGE button on a Biography or Glossary Page may take you to a Map Page, and the NEXT PAGE button on a Document Page may take you to either the Chronography™ or another related Document Page. This handy feature allows us to guide you to information that you might not otherwise manage to locate. 4. Reference and Source Notes are shown at the end of many entries in the Chronography™ and several other types of information pages. If the note is shown in italics it refers to the reference's title; otherwise it refers to the author's last name. Reference notes shown in Link Colors indicates that the reference source is available for purchase in our Online Catalog. All you need to do is click on it to jump to the Catalog and check it out. To place an order, simply click on its name to bring up our order form. 5. To check on a title or author that is not in the Online Catalog, use the toolbar at the left of the page to select REF (References and Source Notes). You can then browse or use the "Find" or "Search" icon to locate the source in question. Both author and title abbreviations are listed alphabetically. Archival notes and information are listed at the bottom of the same page. Copyright © 1997 R.H. Perez de Cruet All Rights reserved. Home Page
