Book Synopsis
Combining trenchant historical and political data with absorbing firsthand narratives, this title brings a human dimension to the literature on transracial adoption.

Trade Review
Worthwhile, but the book's true value lies in the chance to meet the parents of the remarkable young adults profiles in its predecessor. -- Judy Stigger Adoptive Families [In Their Parents' Voices] should be part of every placement agency's library and read by every adopting family. -- Linda Katz Families in Society
