Recenzii
[T]he author makes an especially vital contribution to understanding the ways race, sport, and politics intersected and are certain to continue to do so. This fine work of scholarship will work well in a wide range of college and graduate courses on sports, civil rights, and 20th-century U.S. history more broadly. Summing Up: Highly recommended. All public and academic levels/libraries.
