ADNAN
I was talking about scholarly books written by the respected scholars in
the field and not stories of personal experience. Don't you realize that
there are thousands of men in the U.S who beat and abuse their wives? How
about if someone picks up a book written by an abused wife -- and there are
many -- and generalize all the men in the U.S? There are thousands of women
who are living happily after they married a Muslim man. You can not
generalize people by such stories.

Now, you have read  "Not without my daughter", but I wounder if you read
the book: 

Daughters of Another Path: Experiences of American Women Choosing Islam 
by Carol Anway

It has 53 stories of women -- including the author's daughter -- who
married a Muslim man or converted to Islam and are living happily. Personal
experience of these women as the personal experience of "Not without my
daughter"  does not prove anything.
