Presenting a new framework for understanding the complex but vital
relationship between legal history and the family, Michael
Grossberg analyzes the formation of legal policies on such issues
as common law marriage, adoption, and rights for illegitimate
children. He shows how legal changes diminished male authority,
increased women's and children's rights, and fixed more clearly the
state's responsibilities in family affairs. Grossberg further
illustrates why many basic principles of this distinctive and
powerful new body of law--antiabortion and maternal biases in child
custody--remained in effect well into the twentieth century.
