Through stories heard in the laps of family members, author Robert Lawson tells not only the story of his parents and grandparents, but the story of many families. We learn how his grandparents and parents fell in love. Through this touching family story we learn more than just a story of how this family came to be, but of hard work, love, and the American Dream.
