Dick Eastman says about Genealogy Online for Dummies," What caught my eye first was the names of the authors: Matthew L. Helm and April Leigh Helm. I recognize those names as two experts in the use of online genealogy resources from their web site "Helm's Genealogy Toolbox". The book has 333 pages giving page after page of simple instruction, coupled with hundreds of pointers to online sources. The book also has an exhaustive 23 page index. A CD-ROM disk is also included inside the back cover. This CD-ROM works on Macintosh as well as Windows 3.1, Windows 95 and Windows NT. It contains 9 genealogy-related shareware programs or demos of commercial programs, a number of Internet tools, multimedia tools and utilities. In short, I like this book. It has the words "For Dummies" in the title but some of us not-so-dumb experienced online users will also find worthwhile information in this book."
