Crossing the Line: Black Major Leaguers, 1947-1959
Larry Moffi
From 1947, when Jackie Robinson joined the Brooklyn Dodgers, through 1959, when the Boston Red Sox became the last Major League team to integrate, more than a hundred African American baseball players crossed the colour line and made it to the Major Leagues. This book profiles each of these players, their statistics, and their triumphs and trials.
