One thought on “Books on Monday: Research like a pro

  • Martin,
    This is a fantastic book for genealogy! I don’t have a lot of money to buy the books I want, but I work in a small library. If I think it will benefit a lot of people, I buy it for the library. This book was one that I just recently purchased. I have seen it get checked out a lot already, too.
