Answer: Tony Robinson :beer:

Have you ever wondered what surprises there are in your family tree? It's never been easier to become a detective and find out - thanks to technology. The internet is one of the most essential tools in the family historian's kit, but without the right know-how, it can be a bewildering experience.

How to Trace Your Family History on the Internet guides you through the maze of online sources, directing you to the facts, figures, dates and stories relevant to your search. No matter how much - or how little - you already know about your ancestors, this practical, easy-to-use book will make finding out fascinating, fun and easy.

The book is divided into four chapters - First steps, Building your family tree, Your Family's story and Making contact. They introduce readers to family history, show you how to build a family tree, help you to find out what sort of people your ancestors were and suggest ways of making contact with your wider family. A useful 'Directory' section at the back of the book includes addresses, phone numbers and websites to help you take your research even further.

How to Trace Your Family History on the Internet complete with CD ROM is published by Readers Digest on 24th July 2008, RRP £27.99.
