Book Description: 1992. Paperback. Book Condition: New. This monumental and poignant book tells the forgotten story of black star-quality athletes excluded from professional baseball because of the big league’s unofficial boundary, the color line. Reconstructing the old Negro Leagues from contemporary sports publications, accounts of games in the black press, and through interviews with men who actually played the game, author Robert Peterson brings to life the fascinating period that stretched from shortly after the Civil War to Jackie Robinson’s debut with the Brooklyn Dodgers in 1947. This reprint of the 1970 edition includes a new preface, yearly Negro League standings and an all-time register of players and officials. "A treasure trove of baseball information and lore." Photos. 406pages. Printed in English. Bookseller Inventory # 1-4379-6451-6 Bookseller & Payment Information | More Books from this Seller | Ask Bookseller a Question |
