This is a scholarly book about the Negro League. It contains chapters detailing the history of the league. It separates what we know from what we don’t know. It is lively and entertaining. The highlights are chapters that talk about current or recent Major League Baseball players who have relatives that played in the leagues.

The book is a good place to get quotes if you are doing a term paper. The Author was able to get really great interviews. It is a quick and entertaining read. The book is a welcome addition to anyone’s Baseball library.
