INHERIT THE WIND
by Jerome Lawrence & Robert Edwin Lee
It's a scorching summer. Biology teacher Bertram Cates sits in Hillsboro prison accused of teaching evolution in his classes, an act forbidden by state law for contradicting the seven-day creation. He awaits trial, fearing the worst. He does not, however, feel he has done wrong. In standing up for his beliefs he risks losing his freedom and more, losing those he loves.
