Featuring contributions by Maury Allen, Red Barber, Arthur Mann, Malcolm X, Roger Kahn, and many others, The Jackie Robinson Reader gathers together writings, many of them previously unpublished, which demonstrate the cultural impact of the first black Major League baseball player's actions and the life of the man himself.
This book is pretty good. I just wish it would tell me more about baseball at that time. I learnd a few things abut Jackie, like how he lead the league in hits in in 1949 with 342 hits and drove in 142 runs. He was also MVP that year and thats why I gave this book 4 stars.
