Ready

by Tom McNab

The millionaire black athlete Martin Jones is transported back to 1911 to challenge the great Native American Jim Thorpe. He finds that Pennsylvania is a harsh world for a poor black man, and Jim Thorpe to be a formidable opponent. But Martin also finds in the black community both a brotherhood and love that has been lacking in his previous life. Ready” is a
glorious, freewheeling yarn, taking readers back to a golden era of American sport.
