nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - In 1968, at the height of the Civil Rights struggle, Jessie Stackhouse leaves home to break the color line at an elite, all-white prep school.

The best of humanity is explored -- and some of the worst, exposed. It is very readable, written with a clear and powerful voice, and is engaging from beginning to end.' -- Long and Short Reviews(four stars)'One of the most interesting books I’ve read this year, a one-of-a-kind book.' -- Reading in Color. …
