What are the best books out there for halfling lore? Everything Realms I've read tends to be fairly light on it. I've found a few snippets in places about the Ghost Wars, but thats really all.

Are there any good FR sourcebooks with a good amount of Hin Stuff?

Or other resources.

For halflings, as well as Races of Faerūn, see Ed Greenwood's GAZ8 The Five Shires [set in MYSTARA but largely applicable to the Realms] and "The Adventures of Volo: Hin Nobody Knows" in DRAGON #269.

Oh, one of my all time favourites.

There's also the 2ed. Shining South book, which details the southern land of Luiren. A couple of passable kits with some lore can be found in 2ed. Demi-Humans of the Realms, but I wont recommend the book. Demihuman Deities is a good buy though.
