Thank you for all your responses!  I feel much better about our purchase.

      I'm a new genealogist/genealogy librarian...  I hope someone can help
me with this question.



      Our genealogy department recently purchased a set of books by Jeff
Bowen, "Eastern Cherokee by Blood".  I see that we have already on-shelf a
set of volumes entitled "Cherokee by Blood" by Jerry Wright Jordan.  Prior
to purchase, I looked up each requested book in our card catalog - obviously
Bowen's set was not included in our catalog, but upon review, I wonder if
the two sets are identical - and if I should cancel the order of Bowen's set
in order to save money for new books that include information we do not have
in our collection?  If the sets are fundamentally different, or each
includes some different names, or if the Bowen book is - say - better
indexed...  I'd be happy for us to follow through on the order...



      Any ideas?



      Thank you!
