This review is from: Evidence! Citation & Analysis for the Family Historian (Hardcover)

I have carried this book with me everywhere I've gone to do genealogical research. Taking the time to properly cite my sources as I gather them has saved me tons of time when going back over my notes. This book is well written, and the appendix with its clear examples is what I use most.
