Search Tips

Use * for wildcards (e.g. ta*lor returns taylor and tailor), but not at the start of a word; the more letters you specify the better.

Multiple word searches function as either/or, with results with both or all terms returned first. To search for all the words in your query place a plus sign (+) before each term; to exclude a particular term place a minus sign (-) directly in front. To search for phrases (exact strings, e.g. "Earl of Sandwich"), use double quotes, but this search will ignore stopwords such as of.
