Beneath Our Roof is a memoir written by Louis Paul Lehman Jr. The book tells the story of Lehman's family, particularly his parents, and their struggles and triumphs as they navigated life in America in the mid-twentieth century. Lehman's parents were Jewish immigrants who came to America from Eastern Europe in the early 1900s. They settled in New York City and worked hard to build a life for themselves and their children.The book is divided into two parts. The first part focuses on Lehman's parents and their experiences as immigrants in America. Lehman describes the challenges they faced, including poverty, discrimination, and the struggle to assimilate into American culture. He also explores the ways in which their Jewish heritage shaped their lives and their values.The second part of the book is more personal, focusing on Lehman's own experiences growing up in his family's home. He describes his childhood and adolescence, his relationships with his parents and siblings, and his own struggles to find his place in the world. Throughout the book, Lehman reflects on the importance of family and the ways in which his parents' values and experiences shaped his own life.Beneath Our Roof is a moving and insightful memoir that offers a unique perspective on the immigrant experience in America. It is a tribute to the resilience and perseverance of Lehman's parents and a testament to the power of family and community.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
