True History Full of Romance

About this title

Review:

This is a highly sophisticated, multi-disciplinary exploration by an art historian of the impact of artistic and media images on the perception and experiencing of inter-racial marriage. Organized and written in a very engaging manner, it is a valuable start of a discourse that is sure to expand as questions of ethnic identity intensify apace with increasing cultural diversity in many twenty-first century societies. --Allison Blakely, professor of African American Studies, Boston University
