Chapter 17 Elizabeth & Carl O'Hare
What makes a family in this country uniquely American is different from what makes families in other parts of the world uniquely representative of their own countries.

Their national identity is bound up tightly with their ethnic roots and their ancestral home. . . . An American family, on the other hand, might not look back much farther than a generation or two to the time when their parents or grandparents immigrated to this country from Europe, or Africa, or Asia. . . .
