How to Find Almost Anyone, Anywhere

This is the third (How To Find) book written by this author to help a novice searcher and is a follow up to the original hardback book (which is found in most libraries and bookstores). The original hardback book is referred to often by many professional investigators and has the basics needed to find almost anyone (providing the searcher has good information to work with) and will remain a great source of information. Those who are familiar with the internet know that information on the web changes rapidly and of course there is no way a book written in 1998 can include all the current information available in 2001, however this book can be used as a tool or guide to provide information and insight that will lead to more information. These books are intended to help the searcher using many techniques. The comments and "preachings" by the author are intended to encourage the reader and hopefully suggest ways that will successfully reunite long lost families and friends. This author believes in sharing her knowledge and experience to help others.

This book was more than just helpful to me. I had been a private investigator for a couple of years before I found this book and read it. She manages to pack an immense amount of information in the less the 170 actual learning pages(the rest has addresses, phone numbers and names of various sources of information). I suggest this book for anybody, whether they are looking for a long-lost friend/relative, attemping to, or already are, become a private investigator, or you just like to know how to find people. This book will give you ideas and places to start, but doesn't go so far as to actually do it all for you. After finishing this book, you still need to think about how to get some of the information you may need, but she has shown you where to get it. This book will always be in my library.

I've just completed reading this wonderful book from the library and had to have my own copy. I'm in the process of starting my own investigation company and I refer to it daily. Similar books are miles behind this one!! Good job Ms Tillman!

For someone like me who didn't have a clue where to start, this book steered me in the right direction. I found my birthmother's brother by sending for his driver's license which I had no clue you could do. The addresses in it are quite helpful. The book stimulates your mind and gives you things to do; keep busy and keep looking, shows you where to look and how to go about it. Thanks Norma!!

I just found my adopted sister and my grandfather who fathered my mother during the war. Everything I needed and used was listed in this book. I did, however, used my computer and the internet to access these resources. Everything she said was true. I found her advice and support to those searching comforting.
