E. R. Braithwaite
Praise for To Sir With Love
A book that the reader devours quickly, ponders slowly, and forgets not at all-Moving and inspiring
New York Times
E.R. Braithwaite's postwar novel about a black teacher fighting to win the respect of white pupils in a school in the East End of London is a milestone in the campaign for racial equality
Guardian
It is the noblest, most moving, least sentimental account of life in a modern school and of a teacher's struggles with his pupils and with himself that I have come across
