Mi gran familia europea

Karin Bojs grew up in a small and broken family. At her mother's funeral she felt a strong sense of loneliness more than ever, so as part of a recovery process, she decided to do DNA research to learn more about herself, her family, and the interconnectedness of society. After all, we are all connected. And, in a way, we are all family. This book tells the history of Europe and its inhabitants through genetic legacy and intertwining the latest archaeological discoveries. From Iceland to Spain, Bojs delves into the search for her genealogy; By sequencing and examining her DNA, she traces the exciting path from her ancestors back to prehistory. Drawing from her encounters with dozens of geneticists, historians and archaeologists, the author presents us with a valuable work that looks at genetics from a unique pan-European perspective.
