The Foundling: The True Story of a Kidnapping, a Family Secret, and My Search for the Real Me by Paul Joseph Fronczak
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
An excellent story and account of one man's search for his identity. Paul shares everything with his readers, the good and the bad.
When Paul was about ten years old he was snooping for Christmas presents and came across some clippings from a newspaper story regarding a stolen baby. As he grew older he wanted to find out more about this and as an adult he turned to the Ancestry website.
It started a very long search with many twists and turns. But his story is sad and happy all at the same time.
Anyone who wants to know more about searching through DNA and Ancestry will learn so much from this book, but also its a story about a real person.
