The Inheritance: How Three Families and the American Political Majority Moved from Left to Right Paperback - 1998

by Samuel G. Freedman

Through the prism of three working-class families, Samuel Freedman illuminates the political history of 20th-century America, commencing with the immigrant foundation that laid the foundation for FDR's New Deal, taking readers through the 1960's era of political activism and ending with today's conservatism.


First line

IN THE WANING DAYS OF JANUARY 1918, SILVIO BURIGO carried an autograph book to his classroom at Public School 85 in the Italian slum of East Harlem.
