And when he offered to lend Donald Trump his own much-read and dog-eared pocket Constitution, his gesture perfectly encapsulated the feelings of millions.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eIn this urgent and timeless immigrant story, Khan shares the extraordinary, ordinary journey that led him to that moment: He was the oldest of ten children born to farmers in Pakistan. He was a university student who read the Declaration of Independence and was awestruck by what might be possible in life. He was a hopeful suitor, awkwardly but earnestly trying to win the heart of a woman far out of his league. He was a loving father who, having instilled in his children the ideals that enticed him and his wife to America, tragically lost his son, an Army captain, in the Iraq War. He was and is a patriot, and a fierce advocate for the values enshrined in the American system. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eAn American Family\u003c\/i\u003e shows us who Khizr Khan and millions of other American immigrants are, and why—especially in these tumultuous times—we must not be afraid to step forward for what we believe in when it matters most.","brand":"Penguin Random House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51306477814048,"sku":"9780399592515","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0836\/3661\/7504\/files\/9780399592515.jpg?v=1772781705","url":"https:\/\/creativebysanchez.com\/products\/an-american-family","provider":"Creative By Sanchez","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
