Custom book printing

I've been doing a lot of work (and with hired professional help) genealogy research. Eventually I'd like to format it into a nice book and then have nice hard cover copies printed and give them to gives of my family members. I'd also like a few copies that could be "passed down" though the generations. I'd also like to put one in a public library somewhere.

Any ideas on how I could get these printed? Black/white text would work, but maybe some color pictures would be neat?

    I really need help making some hardbound books as well if anyone has any good info.. I've tried all the local stores and they don't do hard bound books for some odd reason? I'm in a college town as well... Odd

    Ugh, theres a website out there that will custom publish hardcover books, i cant for the life of me think of what its called though. I know my uncle and his wife did one for their kids first birthday, i asked him and he said theyll print anything, not just small picture books... Maybe try googling?

    I havent used it myself but she said there's a tool you download to format everything and whatnot, upload it and print it.

    other people can even order your book.
