Publisher's blurb

Not only are we all descended from a common African 'Adam' and 'Eve', but what's more it can now be proved that all modern non-Africans sprang from a single exodus out of Africa, rather than peopling the earth in multiple waves of migration. In a brilliant synthesis of genetic, archaeological and climatic evidence, Stephen Oppenheimer reveals the story of how a group of no more than a few hundred souls crossed the mouth of the Red Sea some 80,000 years ago.

Chris Pomery's verdict

“DNA opens a new window into history. This book shows, in a very clear and straightforward way, how to start.”

Steve Jones, Professor of Genetics, UCL  

“If you have any interest in how DNA tests can be used in family history, then you should read this book.”

Alan Stewart, Family History Monthly

“I can hardly believe it but the book you posted in England on Monday arrived in Ontario on Friday. I have been reading it most of the weekend. An excellent resource.
J P Bradford, Canada

“This is a book I've been wanting for some time...a ‘must have' for one-namers, informative and useful for all family historians.”

Howard Benbrook, Guild of One-Name Studies

“This comprehensive manual should be on every one-namer's desk and will be of great benefit to anyone researching their ancestors.
Maurice Hemingway, Hemingway One-Name Study

“I read it cover to cover and judge it to be an excellent guide to the topic for the masses who are baffled and bemused
as to what 'genetic genealogy' is all about.”
