"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.
First sentence: WHEN I begin teaching a course on family history, I often ask my students to write down ideas that spring to mind when they think of the "traditional family."
