This is an anthropologist's vivid account of her father's journey across continents, countries, cultures, languages, generations--and wars. It is a daughter's moving portrait of a charming, funny, wounded and difficult man, his relationships with those he loved, and his most sacred of beliefs. And it is a scholar's reflection on the dramatic forces of history, the legacies of culture, the experience of a Jewish immigrant, and the enduring power of memory. This book is for Sociology and Anthropology courses in qualitative methods, ethnography, violence, migration, and ethnicity"--$cProvided by publisher. 410 0$aInnovative ethnographies. 606 $aJews, Polish$zUnited States$vBiography 606 $aJews, Polish$zCuba$vBiography 606 $aJews$zCuba$vBiography 606 $aJews$zUnited States$vBiography 607 $aJedwabne (Poland)$vBiography 615 0$aJews, Polish 615 0$aJews, Polish 615 0$aJews 615 0$aJews 676 $a943.8/3604092 686 $aSOC002010$aSOC026000$2bisacsh 700 $aWaterston$b Alisse$f1951-,$0940543 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910790581003321 996 $aMy father's wars$93786538 997 $aUNINA
