Ref: FH6PBRB

Family Historian is powerful yet easy-to-use genealogy software. But many people barely scratch the surface of the extensive features it offers. If this is you, Getting the most from Family Historian 6 is the book you need. Using screenshots and illustrations, the book takes you on a guided exploration of the whole program. You will discover many great features that you didn’t even know were there, and learn how to do much more with the features you already use. Along the way, you will pick up many great time-saving tips that make ordinary tasks quicker and easier, and make the program more enjoyable to use.

Written by the creator of Family Historian, the book covers all the basic features of the program, as well as the advanced and expert features. It is designed so that you can treat it either as a book to read, or as a reference manual, to dip in and out of. It is suitable for beginners and advanced users alike. Although this book was written for Version 6 the beauty of this software is that so much of it is still relevant to the new V7 program especially if you are a new user. The new aspects of V7 aren't currently included but will be incorporated once written by the manufacturer.
