White Fences Black Stars: A Story of the Negro Baseball Leagues (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798332171352)

In the heart of the Jim Crow era, three men-Heath, Gooch, and Wilkinson-chase more than just fly balls across the American landscape. As African American players in the Negro Leagues, they don't just face opposing pitchers; they face a world determined to keep them on the sidelines. White Fences Black Stars follows this unbreakable brotherhood as they barnstorm across the backroads and big cities of a divided nation, proving their worth in every stadium they touch. Weaving true history with fiction, the story brings legends like Satchel Paige into the dugout, revealing a triumphant tale of men who played for the love of the game and the respect of a country that tried to deny them both.
