Original titleCrossing the Line: A Year in the Land of Apartheid
The award-winning debut by the acclaimed author of Cold New World, Named by The New York Times Book Review as a top ten nonfiction book of 1986, this seminal piece of cross-cultural journalism is an account of a white American's experience teaching black students in South Africa--an account essential for its incisive coverage of the student anti-apartheid movement, as well as for the unpretentious charms of its prose.
