How can I convert a group of related History entries to Bookmarks all at once?

I recently accumulated a group of history entries by either following links from one page to another or looking up some related information. I would like to convert this group of entries into Bookmarks and put them together in a labeled folder by the quickest way possible. Obviously they can be done one at a time; I'd like to know if there is a way to do more than one at a time.

Maybe there is a best way, but the best that I know is it:

  1. Show your Bookmarks Toolbar, see Bookmarks Toolbar - Display your favorite websites at the top of the Firefox window.
  2. Create a new folder in the Bookmarks Toolbar(Use bookmark folders to organize your bookmarks).
  3. Open you History, press Ctrl+Shift+H, select the entries that you want convert in bookmarks.
  4. Then drag in drop it in the folder in the bookmars folder

Very good advise. However, you don't have to use the toolbar. You can place the new folder anywhere you want in the Bookmarks Manager.

You can select multiple history items in the usual way via Shift for a range or Ctrl for individual items. You can also use the clipboard via Copy and Paste to copy items to a bookmarks folder.
