For those others who are interested, here is the description from the

2,600 titles in print located in Westminster, Maryland. The bookstore
division, Willow Bend Books, is the largest genealogy bookstore in the
world. A professional genealogical and historical researcher for more than
nineteen years, he specializes in the records of the National Archives,
especially those that relate to the military.
