520 2  "In this deeply personal narrative, Brett L. Walker sets 
       out to construct a history of his body and family health 
       in an effort of better understanding his diagnosis with a 
       serious immunological disorder in 2010. While succumbing 
       to pneumonia and a plural effusion in an Intensive Care 
       Unit, a doctor's simple question, 'Do you have a family 
       history of illness?' launched Walker's investigation into 
       his and his family's medical past. The final product 
       represents a startlingly fresh way to view the role of 
       history in understanding our physical selves and, in the 
       broader sense, the communities where we live. In his 
       family's history, Walker discovers something far more 
       valuable than a predisposition to an immunological 
       disorder. He concludes that family stories are what shape 
       us and color our world. Walker's relationship with rural 
       life on a Montana wheat and barley farm are what he 
       continues to rehearse in his own imagination. He discovers
       that family is at the root of identity and values. Without
       ties to a family history, we are like wheat waving in the 
       wind. This, he concludes, is the more lasting lesson of 
       history. Walker submits that, at a time when only the 
       present seems to matter, we must renew our interest in the
       past, or risk misunderstanding our selves and the world 
       around us"--Provided by publisher.
