  1. I select and buy books for our Columbine Genealogical and Historical Society to donate to local libraries. This book got my attention when it arrived and I am utterly amazed at the quality and detail of its contents. George is legend in the genealogy community, he has done it all and his advice and examples in this updated 2nd edition are dead on. His examples are perfect and his text lean and to the point. I’ve done lots of genealogy research, and I was picking up new tips in each chapter, like this bit of advice to get access to today’s ’semi-restricted’ public records found on pgs 317-318:

    (quote)”… Be prepared by carrying a copy of your pedigree chart with you, along with copies of birth certificates, marriage licenses, death certificates, obituaries, and other documentation that might prove your relationship. The fact that you ‘are’ prepared to prove your relationship speaks volumes to the people from whom you make these requests.” (end quote)

    I have recommended this book to our society instructors as well as numerous friends. Much of the material in this book comes from George’s seminars which are always top notch. Considering the price of seminars these days, the book is a true bargain!
