The Ammann family book was first published in 1950. It is a carefully researched account of the lineage from the first documented ancestor, Hans Ammann, in 1449 down to those existing at the time of publication. Besides the individual life sketches, one finds a background of the history of Schaffhausen, a bit of hearldy history, and a history of the Craft guild.
A classic study of a talented medieval family.
