Description

There has been plenty of media coverage on such an iconic and groundbreaking player, but in Jackie  Robinson: My Own Story, Robinson’s experiences both on and off the field are presented in his own words. This  account (as told to the veteran sports writer Wendell Smith)  was written soon after Robinson’s first year in the majors.  It helps us understand the forces that influenced this much admired superstar as well as gives us insight into what it was like to live and perform under unfathomable pressure. 
Jackie Robinson has left an indelible mark on baseball history. In fact, his jersey, number 42, is the only number to be retired for all teams in the majors. For any baseball fan interested in one of the game’s true greats, both on the field and off,
 Jackie Robinson: My Own Story is an engaging must-read.
