Summary: After Finishing This Book You'll Love Baseball Even More
Comment: If America is the melting pot, then baseball is an extension of that cauldron. Winter's books -- including "Fair Ball," a similar look at pre-Jackie Robinson Negro League stars -- are gems that illuminate athletes, musicians, artists and more. The writing is sharp. The illustrations here are reminscient of baseball cards. And the subject matter, minority baseball greats, has been up till now overlooked. These volumes will give your child -- and you, too -- breadth in understanding America's pastime as well as an understanding of pop culture. We laud our heroes to the point of nausea. Winter delights us by heralding the unsung heroes of a not so long ago but very distant era.
