The way we never were

About this book

"The Way We Never Were is an examination of two centuries of family life that shatter the myths that burden modern families and make them long for the past."

"In a new introduction, Coontz examines key cultural events since the original 1992 publication - from Bill Clinton's sexual transgressions to high school shootings across the nation - and reexamines the myths that continue to compel the American people to long for a time that never was." --BOOK JACKET.
