MICHENER JAMES A
Sports In America
Random House New York: 1976. Hardcover no dustjacket. Good condition. Stain on edge. James Michener feels he owes his very life to sports. When he was a youth basketball probably helped save him from becoming a juvenile delinquent and later in life his vigorous physical activity kept him fit after a serious heart attack. Out of his gratitude and love for sports comes this searching examination of the ways we are using and misusing sports in America. His superb portrait of the juvenile sporting world will make you think twice before entering a child in organized competition. Includes an Index. ISBN: 039440646X. Random House, New York: 1976 hardcover

DIXON PHIL; HANNIGAN P. J
The Negro Baseball Leagues: A Photographic History
Amereon House Mattituck New York: 1992. Hardcover with dustjacket. Brand new book. Still in plastic wrapper. This book is an essential text for baseball and social historians. Anyone who has studied this area understands the dearth of information and the lack of photographic documentation of this important institution. The first comprehensive history of black baseball it follows Simpson Younger the first Black to play college baseball to Jackie Robinson breaking the Major Leagues' color barrier after World War II & the subsequent death of the Negro Leagues in the mid-1950s. There's a lot of little-known history along the way. The great players like Smokey Joe Williams who once struck out 27 batters in a 10-inning game & was the pitcher Satchel Paige said he admired most. Cool Papa Bell so fast it was said he could "turn out the light & get in bed before the room got dark"; & Rube Foster regarded as the father of the Negro Leagues whose pitching prowess was matched only by his managerial & organizational skills. Then there are the great teams -- the Kansas City Monarchs who pioneered night games through the use of a portable lighting system; the Pittsburgh Crawfords featuring Satchel Paige & Josh Gibson the slugging catcher in the 1930s; the Chicago Giants were led by Rube Foster both on the mound and at the helm.
