Description
"In this book, Jack Orr has traced the history of the black athlete in America. It is an intriguing story. My part in it is incidental. But the book shows how far we, who happened to have been black, have traveled. From a time when we were considered toadying playthings we have progressed to the point where a great many of the best fighters, the best ballplayers and the best runners and jumpers are black and are so acknowledge in our country.
