Summary
In the early 1900s, African Americans faced widespread discrimination. Professional baseball leagues banned Black ballplayers. So African Americans formed their own professional baseball leagues. This book explores the history of these leagues and their legacy today. Includes text, images, and back matter, plus a table of contents, infographics, a glossary, additional resources, and an index
