      The author studies the problem of statistical estimation of the index parameter of the extreme-value distribution. An estimator based on the record values is proposed and its asymptotic properties are investigated. It is shown that the estimator is consistent in the domain of attraction of extreme-value distributions, and under mild conditions is asymptotically normal.
