Review :
"Each volume provides an easy to understand overview of the history of immigration and culture in the U.S. for the particular ethnic group....Where these books shine, for the student and adult genealogist, is in the resource listings....For students, these books provide a great way of getting started in genealogy and learning about the life and heritage of their ancestors. For adult researchers these books provide excellent resources to move beyond the genealogical books into learning about the history, culture and experience of their ancestors."-FGS Forum
..."this is a well-written and rich resource for interested students."-School Library Journal
"As a whole, the book is an interesting read, and the recommended resources should prove useful to those who want to pursue their British genealogy."-ALBA
"The authors have included descriptions of electronic tools used by family researchers. Few other titles on this level mention CD-ROM censuses or other vital records, yet these volumes even compare specific family history software programs....they offer very specific advice to young people on how to write relatives, what to ask, and how to file information once it's collected."-Booklist/Reference Books Bulletin
