Paperback. Condizione: New. In the Netherlands, a small group of biracial citizens has entered its eighth decade of lives that have been often puzzling and difficult, but which offer a unique insight into the history of race relations in America.

But they could now understand their own Dutch lives in the context of their fathers' lives in America.…
