1.0 out of 5 stars If you don't subscribe to ancestry, this book is pointless, November 30, 2007
By Linda "Mom of 5" (Missouri, USA) - See all my reviews
I had hoped that this book would help me locate treasures on the internet. Unfortunately it is, for the most part, a printed index to what is available on ancestry.com. If you don't subscribe to ancestry, don't waste time or money on this book.
