This book is exactly what it says it is. It has many, many resources and strategies for researching your family line in Scotland. I would recommend it.

I was given a free arc via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.

Whether your ancestors came from the Highlands, Lowlands or the Scottish Isles, it is likely that the Scottish government websites will contain records to help you with your genealogical research. The author takes the reader through the types of records that are available, where to find them, and where to go next as you continue your research. The book is well-written, easy to follow and includes a vast number of resources.

This book was very useful in helping me with my Genealogy project. In the UK the main thrust for searching relates to English family tree information but the Scottish have their own archives and documentation. The Church and the legal system are different in Scotland.
This book explains so many helpful elements in a clear concise way and thankfully without being boring. I’d certainly recommend this book to those starting out trying to trace the Scottish line in their family.

Great new reference book for tracing Scottish. Many Many connections to online data bases. You need this book if you are tracing your family. Great Job!

This book is an amazing resource for the beginning genealogist tracing their Scottish roots. It lists many sources available for users to discover their roots, no matter what country you currently reside. It took a library reference course and many of the resources would be those that librarians would suggest to patrons looking into genealogy. I would recommend this book to anyone interested in getting started in discovering their family tree.

An excellent book full of usefully information on how and where to search for your Scottish ancestors. This is a great ‘go to ‘ reference book for beginners or experienced family history researchers. Not only that but it is an interesting dip in read too.
