ORDER THIS TITLE
When the television production of ROOTS exploded on the educational scene, it brought about a tremendous interest in the history of Blacks in America. This play offers a different look at the same struggle for freedom. It is based on the true story of the integration movement in education. Although rich in gentle humor, the play builds to a violent and frightening climax. This outstanding play was selected by the Houghton Mifflin Company as part of their Afro-American Literature series.

Full of humor. ...A Land Beyond the River is a lively play, human and likable. Despite the seriousness of its theme, it flares into comedy repeatedly. Brooks Atkinson, New York Times
