Satchel Paige : striking out Jim Crow

Sturm, James 1965- (Author). Tommaso, Rich. (Added Author). Center for Cartoon Studies. (Added Author).

Satchel Paige began his baseball career in the Negro Leagues in Alabama in the 1920s. For years, Jim Crow laws, which segregated blacks and whites, kept him out of the major leagues. But they couldn't stop him from becoming a world-class athlete. This is a fictionalized account of a real-life sports hero.
