Reviews
“Brian Gillespie, a young scholar who has published extensively on the topic of household mobility, tackles an important American experience that has thus far gone without this sort of systematic attention. This timely work will be valuable to any researcher interested in American culture and family.” (Shige Oishi, Professor at the University of Virginia, USA)
