Publisher's Description

"[A] well reasoned, empirically sound, and an important contribution to the public debate." — William J. Bennett, author of The Book of Virtues

A compelling and controversial exploration of absentee fathers and their impact on the nation

One of the most urgent and controversial books of the 90s, "'Fatherless in America' has instantly become a catch phrase" (Los Angeles Times). Blankenhorn defines the growing fatherlessness in America and how we can restore fathers to their rightful place in our families.
