Edson Barlow says of this book:
The English, Welsh and Irish information on the Barlow family seems to be quite authentic and reliable, and the footnotes do a fair job of giving source references -although I have no idea how we here in the U.S. would go after some of the sources mentioned.
His information on the American Barlows is all screwed up - he probably didn't come over here and he accepted a lot of false information or he drew false conclusions from the bits of reliable information that he had. But his history of the origins of the Barlows seems to be as reliable as there is.
