Good source of information:
If you have never attended or planned a family reunion, this book is for you. If you have planned a reunion before it is slightly helpful and can give you some extra pointers.
Best Reunion Book on the Market:
I've been organizing reunions for our family for 7 years and have read all the books on reunions. This one is the best. It was well organized and contains lots of great tips. It's also the only one I've seen that has links to Web sites, and every one I looked at had good content. I used the book as our guide to organizing our reunion this September for about 75 people, and it made it lots easier. Great forms, good advice and excellent reading. This one is the best!
