The Absentee American: Repatriates' Perspectives on America

This unique volume describes the impact of overseas living on Americans who spent some of their formative years in other countries and returned to the United States during their high school or early college years. Based on a survey and interviews of more than 300 returnees, The Absentee American describes overseas life, reentry into the United States, and the long-term effects of these experiences on repatriated Americans. The author, a freelance writer who grew up in the Foreign Service, explores the feelings and attitudes of repatriates and emphasizes the need for increased intercultural education and training.
