""Inventing America's Worst Family" is an important, refreshing, and interesting work. Perhaps the most fascinating aspect of this account is its placement at the center of a larger narrative about America's obsession with Orientalism. The story emerges gracefully and compellingly; Deutsch clearly presents new material and has gone to great efforts to track what actually became of the Ishmael group, and its origins."--Wendy Kline, author of "Building a Better Race: Gender, Sexuality, and Eugenics from the Turn of the Century to the Baby Boom" "This is one of the most intriguing, imaginative works of history I've read in quite some time. "Inventing America's Worst Family" advances historical scholarship on poverty and eugenics in compelling ways, with its deep analysis of institutional realities and cultural trends. Deutsch combines a terrific story with his own impressive narrative talent; the book is ingeniously conceived, brilliantly researched, and beautifully told!"--J. Terry Todd, Drew University
