Voices from the Great Black Baseball Leagues
Written by John Holway   
 
Publisher: Dodd, Mead
Publication Date: 1975

Covers the era from 1887 to 1947 when baseball was segregated. In over 400 games that have been uncovered between black teams and barnstorming white big leaguers, the blacks won at least two out of three games. Holway criss-crossed the country seeking out the veterans of the old Negro leagues, put their stories on tape and then spent countless hours in libraries to confirm their stories
