"Are you stumped by how to effectively find the specific information you need on the Internet? This well-researched and practical step-by-step guide is a god-send. This is the reference book for legal and investigative research using the Internet, particularly free and low-cost sites. There is no one place on the Internet that provides comprehensive, intuitively organized, indexed links to sources of public records, and business, legal and topic-specific research. This book does it. It will save you time and eliminate the frustration of Internet hunting. It's as if Carole and Mark have helped organize my brain." --Tamara Thompson, PI Buzz.com
