BOOK - DNA & Genealogy
By Colleen Fitzpatrick and Andrew Yeiser
The genetic trail that an ancestor leaves behind is every bit as important as their paper trail. Though Y-chromosome and mitochondrial DNA testing, the modern genealogist has a powerful new tool for researhing their roots.
This book provides the basics for those who are new to DNA testing. However it goes beyond the basics, providing important insights for more experienced genetic genealogists.
Fascinating anecdotes for everyone!
