Reviews
"Considered by many to be one of the greatest outfielders of all time, Pete Hill is sadly also one of the least known early Black Hall of Famers. Here Bob Luke chronicles Hill's well-traveled, pioneering career, placing emphasis on the times--with race riots, pandemic, Prohibition, and early battles for civil rights forming the backdrop. Anyone interested in Hill, pre-Negro Leagues competition, or the Negro Leagues of the early 1920s should have this book on their shelf."--Barry Sparks, author of Frank "Home Run" Baker: World Series Hero and Hall of Famer, "Author Bob Luke makes another valuable contribution to African American baseball history. Anyone interested in knowing more about Pete Hill, pre-Negro League competition and the Negro Leagues fan of the early 1920s, should have this book on their shelf."--Barry Sparks, author of Frank "Home Run" Baker: World Series Hero and Hall of Famer, "The great ballplayers of the Negro leagues labored behind a curtain of obscurity, racism, and neglect. Bob Luke has done an admirable job of clearing away the cobwebs and putting the career of Pete Hill into sharp relief against the texture of his times. Early Black players such as Hill are notoriously difficult to research, and this book is the most complete accounting of his life anyone has produced."--Gary Ashwill, Agate Type blog and the Seamheads Negro Leagues Database

Synopsis
Drawing on contemporary newspaper accounts, this first ever biography of John Preston 'Pete' Hill recounts the career of a neglected Hall of Famer in the context of the turbulent issues that surrounded him - segregation, women's suffrage, Prohibition and the Spanish flu., Among early 20th century baseball players, John Preston "Pete" Hill (1882-1951) was considered the equal of Babe Ruth, Ty Cobb and Tris Speaker--only skin color kept him out of the majors. A capable manager, Hill captained the Negro League's Chicago-based American Giants, led two expansion teams and retired from the sport as manager of the Baltimore Black Sox. Drawing on contemporary newspaper accounts, this first ever biography of Hill recounts the career of a neglected Hall of Famer in the context of the turbulent issues that surrounded him--segregation, women's suffrage, Prohibition and the Spanish flu.

Tracking listed product traveling to various states in the opposite direction before sale was in the process of being cancelled. Upon initial request the item showed up the next day, apparently from 1200 miles away. Odd, Seems like a USPS issue but unsure. As is product arrived and is in good shape. I would order from this ebayer again. Thank you
