Summary:
The author of The Know-It-All and The Year of Living Biblically undergoes a hilarious, heartfelt quest to understand what constitutes
family
- where it begins and how far it goes - and attempts to untangle the true meaning of the "
Family
of Humankind." A.J. Jacobs has received some strange emails over the years, but this note was perhaps the strangest: "You don’t know me, but I'm your eighth cousin. And we have over 80,000 relatives of yours in our database." That'
s
enough
family
members to fill Madison Square Garden four times over. Who are these people, A.J. wondered, and how do I find them? So began Jacobs's three-year adventure to help build the biggest
family
tree
in history. Jacobs's journey would take him to
all
seven continents. He drank beer with a US president, found himself singing with the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, and unearthed genetic links to Hollywood actresses and real-life scoundrels. After
all
, we can choose our friends, but not our
family
. A.J. Jacobs is the editor at large of Esquire magazine and a contributor to National Public Radio.
