Fatherhood In America: A History

By Robert L. Griswold

Book Overview

An historical analysis of men's lives as parents, this book traces a fundamental shift - the transformation from the 19th-century patriarch, a man whose position as breadwinner was more or less unquestioned, to the late-20th-century Dad, a man who now shares the breadwinning with his wife.
