Leading family history website ancestry.com.au says:

"We recently received a copy of "How To Get More Family Tree Time" by Megan Gibson.  Megan is a freelance researcher who has done work for private clients, as well as researching several episodes of the Australian series 'Who Do You Think You Are?' - no doubt her work in TV production led to many of the tips in this book!

The tips - and there are 50 of them - are divided into well organised chapters that make the book a great reference tool as well as a pleasing cover-to-cover read.  Each suggested time-saving maxim is supported by practical, personal experience from Megan, so you get to see how these things translate into the real world.

But it's not just for the time poor genealogist. This book is also great for beginners as it's packed with useful information for those starting out.  So if this sounds like a book you or someone you know would be interested in - Christmas is just around the corner..."  Book Review, ancestry.com.au e-newsletter, Nov 2010

Customers say:

"I have now officially *finished* my first book in I don't know how long.  It's really great!  Your book was succinct and very readable.  Some of the things I was doing and the rest were timely reminders on what I *should* be doing or fantastic ideas on what I can be doing.  Thanks for your great book."     Rosemary, ACT, email Oct 2010

"Congratulations on writing and producing the book - I can see it is overlaid with your sense of fun and humour and has some remarkably practical tips - it is just great.  No reason now why I cannot get cracking with what I have been trying to research - and have been procrastinating about."     Claire, QLD, email Oct 2010
