 Very good, religion minimized though November 12, 2002
12 out of 13 found this review helpful
This fun little book is a great starting point for making a family history that can be passed on to future generations. The book works by giving the family historian a series of questions that he or she can answer, thus making the basis for the history. Topics covered include such things as family and ancestry, careers, politics, and much more.I really liked this book; it took me in directions that I never would have thought possible. Overall, though, I would only recommend this book as a starting point. For some reason, religion is covered with only a few questions in this book; while for some families it is much more important that such coverage would show. That said, though, I do think that this is a very good book. If you want to tailor make a history of your own, then it is a good starting point. But, if you want to record a history merely by answering their questions, then this book will work very well for that, too. I highly recommend this book.

This is a wonderful gift to leave your children. The questions are ones that you may not think to ask. When completed, you are leaving your children something that money can not buy.
The greatest companion to have when starting your memories November 1, 2005

For a couple of years now I have been reading books on preserving memories, geneology and the like. Some were too technical, others too scattered in their approach. Finally, I found these books by Bob Greene and D. G. Fulford. They are just the ticket for giving to family members to stimulate their recollections, as well as getting me started. I have lost several family members in the last few years. The ones who remain will be writing something their children will keep as precious due to these books.

This is the most amazing book I have ever purchased. For Christmas, I gave this book to almost every member of my family. The stories this book inspires, the thoughts and memories you see go through your family's minds is truely the most rewarding gift. Their stories and memories will live on forever.
