This book includes interviews from adopted children who came from the Tennessee Children's Home Society in Memphis. Georgia Tann was the proprietor of this establishment from sometimes around the 1920s-1950s. Many of these children were stolen from poor families and adopted out to anyone who could pay basically. They were essentially sold for a higher price than a normal Tennessee adoption would cost during this time. A lot of the women who had just given birth were told that their babies had died, and some babies who had physical problems or were thought to be unattractive were left to starve in their cribs. The stories that these people told about what it was like to be adopted, discover the circumstances of their adoption, and how their lives worked out after was extremely interesting. I am from Chattanooga, so it was also really interesting to learn about something that happened close to home. I really liked this book a lot, and I would highly recommend.
