At the present, this bibliography is a work in progress since thousands of books and articles on the Booths have been written. While only a few of these books are in print or readily available, new ones are being published. Thus, most authors who have elected to write about the Booths do not seem fully aware of what has been previously written. Hopefully, this bibliography may provide the most important books and be of some help.

We are adding books on a continuing basis. The books and articles that are in the collection of the Library or Archives (Booth Research Center) of the Historical Society of Harford County, Inc. are followed with a brown "(HSHC)." They are available for examination, but not borrowing, at the Historical Society of Harford County, Inc. Some are available online or through public libraries.
