Review:
"TOUCHES ALL THE BASES ... Rampersad methodically retraces the amazing story of Robinson's transition from a local Southern California hero ... into the man who broke the unstated but implacable color line in major league baseball and changed American race relations forever ....He educated, at great sacrifice, his era. His lesson lives in Rampersad's book".
