"This book is a concise genealogy. I read it for my historical research methods class at SUNY Brockport. The sub-topic was genealogy, and our million page papers were on our own family histories. I think it is a great thing to do for yourself and your family members, because when I found my grandfather's grandparents in England and Germany, my great Uncle Henry was ecstatic because he finally knew information he couldn't remember from his childhood. However, I don't know all that much about Ian Frazier, and I am not being mean but I really don't care about his life. I would only recommend reading it if interested in compiling your own genealogy."
"It's kind of ridiculously self-indulgent that Frazier intertwines America's history with that of his family but he gets away with it by separating the "big statements" from the genealogy.
"frazier's gifts as a writer shine in this climb through his family tree. deadpan, folksy, soulful, urbane, frazier captures the complexities of his family's unique history within the context of our country's history. lots of real people and their small eccentricities. ON THE REZ is another great Frazier book."
