Limited 14CD box set. The ultimate tribute to Paul Robeson, singer, stage and film actor, all-American football player, lawyer, and advocate for civil rights.

First restoration of Robeson's famous 1944 Othello stage production with Uta Hagen and José Ferrer from the original 33 master disc sides. His complete remastered Columbia albums (Songs of Free Men, Popular Favorites, Spirituals). First release of his historic 1958 recitals at Mother A.M.E. Zion Church, New York, and Royal Albert Hall, with 30 previously unissued recordings. Richly illustrated 160-page book with essays by Shana L.
