Extremely useful in convincing me that I never want to do this much work.

[Whitney · Rating 4 out of 5]

This book was informative for the audience for which it was written. I'm not one of those people, but I did find it an interesting read because of the science, statistics and ethics and such.

[Amberly · Rating 5 out of 5]

Excellent. A must-read for every serious genealogist. Belongs in every genealogist's home reference library.
