Only the Ball Was White: A History of Legendary Black Players and All-Black Professional Teams
When Only the Ball Was White was first published
in 1970, Satchel Paige had not yet been inducted
into the Hall of Fame, and there was a general
ignorance even among sports enthusiasts of the
rich tradition of the Negro Leagues. In his
pioneering book, Peterson tells the forgotten
story of the many unknown greats of the Negro
League. 53 halftones. By Robert Peterson.
