REVIEWS

This is a short book, but very informative. There are so many photos and they clearly show the styles of clothing and hair, some for different ethnicities. Very helpful for me as a family genealogist. - Rachel Begovic, Buffalo, New York

What a fantastic collection of photographs. Made it super easy to figure out most of the dates for my family photos. - Helen Walkman, Guelph, Ontario, Canada

I had several photos under glass that came from my great-grandmother's house many years ago. This book helped me date them and scan them properly. - Rose Fitch, Wickenburg, Arizona

I like books that are "short and sweet," that come to the point and don't waste my time. PhotoGen is that kind of a book. I've just started to ID people in my family's old albums, and this book helped me right away. And it has
a great collection of photographs to help. - Robert Duke, Hot Springs, Arkansas
