About this listen
David Falkner, noted author of five previous books about baseball, deftly portrays the rise to stardom of Jackie Robinson, the first African-American to play on a major-league team in baseball’s modern era. As Falkner traces the development of Robinson’s natural skill and tireless dedication, he focuses on the strengths that earned Robinson a unique place on the diamond and in the struggle for civil rights. This compelling biography illuminates a critical intersection of sports and cultural history.

Wish more info on playing career
Definitely get better idea about Jackie and his life. In depth details of his plying career always seems to be insufficient in any reSearch.

A must read in today’s climate.
An inspirational life told in an honest way. I found several parallels to the climate of racial tension in America today. This was a really excellent book about an extraordinary person.
