Homesickness: An American History
Matt, Susan J. (Presidential Distinguished Professor of History, Presidential Distinguished Professor of History, Weber State University, Odgen, UT, United States)
Using letters, diaries, memoirs, medical records, and psychological studies, this wide-ranging book uncovers the profound pain felt by Americans on the move from the country's founding until the present day. Susan Matt shows how colonists in Jamestown longed for and often returned to England, African Americans during the Great Migration yearned for their Southern homes, and immigrants nursed memories of Sicily and Guadalajara and, even after years in America,frequently traveled home.
