S4 Ep. 31 – The American Family Firmly Rooted in Freedom

In this episode of the Fairest Love Podcast, we had the opportunity to speak with Dr. Susan Hanssen, history professor at the University of Dallas in Irving, Texas. Dr. Hanssen shares with us an extensive yet approachable view of the history of the American family and our foundations rooted in freedom.

Dr. Hanssen has written numerous scholarly articles on history within Western Civilization and the world. A notable article from our conversation today can be found on The Public Discourse titled “Complementarity: Lessons from Little House in the Big Woods.”

For parents wanting to have a deeper appreciation for the American family, Dr. Hanssen recommends reading The Little House on the Prairie series as well as A Midwife’s Tale: The Life of Martha Ballard.
