Timeline
Published by Viking in 2013, The Family tells the story of the three branches of Laskin's mother's family. At the turn of the last century, the offspring of a pious scribe from the yeshiva town of Volozhin divided into three branches: one branch came to New York and founded two successful businesses (including the successful Maidenform Bra Company, started by Laskin's great aunt Ida Rosenthal), one branch immigrated to what was then Palestine and helped found the cooperative farm of Kfar Vitkin, and all of those who remained behind perished in the Holocaust.
The Long Way Home: An American Journey from Ellis Island to the Great War (2010), unfolds the lives of a dozen European immigrants who served with the American Expeditionary Force when the nation went to war in 1917. These men– four Italian-Americans, three Jews, two Poles, an Irishman, a Slovak and a Norwegian– fought bravely in the trenches of France and Belgium; three of them were killed in action; two received the Medal of Honor. The Long Way Home won the 2011 Washington State Book Award for History/General Nonfiction.
