Summary
"With more than five million family history and genealogy Web sites on the Internet, arm-chair and serious genealogists alike are sometimes overwhelmed and intimidated by so much information. This book not only introduces readers to what they can find on the Internet but, more important, where to turn next and how to use the computer as a research tool. The Genealogist's Computer Companion explains how to maximize research efforts by blending the use of online resources with real-world records, including: - Accessing electronic databases - Preparing for library research at home - Using genealogy software to track your ancestors - Getting and verifying information on the World Wide Web - Preserving precious documents and photographs electronically" [from Google Books]
