Forbidden Relatives: The American Myth of Cousin Marriage
Ottenheimer
1996
Submitter: As a new librarian at a small community college (in the southern U.S.) there are many gems to be weeded. When the school first opened a library was created from other libraries’ discards. Needless to say, I don’t think anyone that held this position before me bothered to do any serious weeding…My favorite has to be, “Forbidden Relatives.” From what I’ve seen of the book, it looks like the authors are trying to make a pro-relative marriage argument.
Holly: Oooooh-kayyy…
