Summary:

As our country reels from the sub-prime mortgage meltdown and the resulting devastation of so many families, so many communities and even cities, Hill takes us inside the "crisis of home" Americans are confronting. Along the way she exposes its deep roots in race and gender inequities which continue to haunt the country and imperil every American's ability to achieve the American Dream. 214 pp.
