Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Focusing on the integration of baseball in the Carolinas, this book provides a comprehensive history that contrasts with Jackie Robinson's well-known narrative. It explores the gradual and uneven progress of integration across various communities, highlighting the roles of local executives and the major leagues in shaping the process. The author shares lesser-known stories, including desegregation efforts in youth leagues and the experiences of the first Black players in small towns, as well as the connections between Afro-Cuban players and Carolina leagues.
