Lescaut, Jacques de
Encyclopedia of Birth Data
One volume with 600 entries for each sign, pub in Belgium for a decade

time, when known, with the time zone, signature and L&L. A brief bio
is given in French and English with data sequential by date, alphabetical
names at the back of the book along with source and reference. The
succeeding volumes increased in price and in error as they decreased in
quality, no bio, names in one section, category in a second section, a
chart in the third section and the source in the final section, making the
volumes difficult to follow. Due to misquotes and errors, all the data
must be classified as "C" unless verified by an outside source,
with the exception of data from Lescaut's own country, Belgium, given as
B.C. (Data in the Lescaut collections are credible when given by Luc de
Marre, an extremely careful, accurate collector.)
