I am a librarian and have bought a lot of books on genealogy but this one is fantastic. It is loaded with websites and ideas and to have it all in one place is just staggering. The author did a great job.
This was my first purchased book on genealogy. It was great. There is so much I didn’t know. I’ve been doing genealogy for 12 years, here and there. I definitely recommend this book to beginners and advanced genealogist.

This book offer a trememdous amount of very useful information for doing online genealogy. I prefer the information in it compared to “Printed Sources . . a guide to Published Genealogy Records”. It is well written and user friendly.
