The Mountain of Names: A History of the Human Family - Softcover
The Mountain of Names offers a Kaleidoscopic view of the nature of the family throughout history. From primitive societies, where family and kinship define each person's sense of self, through the genealogies of aristocratic families, the rise of modern individualism, and on to our contemporary concern with genetics and our search for "roots," Shoumatoff provocatively illumines the myriad aspects of family ties.
