Review by Library Journal Review

If you'd rather embark on a genealogical adventure not immediately tied to ancestry.com and its many related packages, turn to this book. Brad Schepp (former editorial director, AmericaOnline) and Debra Schepp (former editor, McGraw-Hill), a librarian, write on e-commerce and e-research, and Debra has done genealogy since childhood. They share their evaluations of lots of online genealogical resources, some quite obscure; offer sound suggestions on how to tailor your research; the use of alternative routes when your first approach doesn't lead to family information; and ways to offer the fruits of your work to the next generation.
