Denise,

Everton Publishers is the premier genealogical publishing company in
the country (probably the world).  I think that you can be reasonably
sure that if they publish something, that it will be useful to someone.
The only question is whether it will be useful to you.  They sell 
several introductory books that would be very useful to beginners, but
not to experienced researchers.  You are always taking a chance when you
order books of records, because there is always a good chance that none
of the records will pertain to your family.  It's usually better to
search these at libraries.  If you don't live near a genealogical library,
there is the possibility of interlibrary loan.  Also, the New England
Historic Genealogical Society has an extensive mail book loan program for 
its members, and perhaps other societies do as well.  I, myself, would
probably look around for the book in libraries I have access to.   Then if
I couldn't find it, I might order it with the thought of donating it to
one of the libraries that didn't have it, assuming it turned out to be 
something I couldn't use.
