Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Out of date Comment: This book was great when it first came out and gave a marvellous overview of the Internet and the available resources. Unfortunately the Internet moves quickly and this book is virtually useless for current genealogy on the Internet. Look to more recent publications. More Reviews
