The South Side by Louis Rosen
A powerful and moving story of the racial transformation of an American neighborhood, told in memoir and oral narrative. It deserves to become a classic....This text needs to be understood and performed at least as regularly as Thornton Wilder's Our Town. -Sandy Primm, St. Louis Post-Dispatch
