The Book of Knee: 100 Years of an American Jewish Family - Paperback

The Book of Knee: 100 Years of an American Jewish Family is an anecdotal and photographic history of a middle-aged couple and their six children who emigrated to the United States in the 1920s and found what they were looking for: better lives for themselves and their children. In a light-handed and sometimes humorous way, the book traces the family from the shtetl of Dembitz, Poland, shortly after the end of World War I to the present, mostly through the memories and stories of a group of first cousins who spent many of the Sundays of their childhoods together. It is a repository of family history from those who have long passed to those who have yet to be born.
