257pp. Notes per essay, contributor notes, index. Adoption affects an estimated 60 percent of Americans, but despite its pervasiveness, this social institution has been little examined and poorly understood.

Offering provocative interpretations of a variety of issues, including antebellum adoption and orphanages; changing conceptions of adoption in late-nineteenth-century novels; Progressive Era reform and adoptive mothers; the politics of "matching" adoptive parents with children; the radical effect of World War II on adoption practices; religion and the reform of adoption; and the construction of birth mother and adoptee identities, the essays in Adoption in America will be debated for many years to come. Several essays make use of the confdential adoption records of the Children's Home Society of Washington, signaling a new era in adoption historiography. Cloth in dust jacket. Light shelfwear. Very good.
