Her Jewish ancestors had immigrated to America from Germany in 1857, and no one in the immediate family had any knowledge about the portraits that previously had hung for over a century in the home of distant relatives in a small south German village."

In the course of her research she uncovered a rich trove of documents, images, facts, and stories that paint a vivid picture of daily life in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries." | |

In addition to the text there are over seventy-five black and white illustrations, a guide for researchers, maps, and bibliography."--Jacket. | |
