The first African American to break the color barrier in modern major league baseball, Jackie Robinson was one of the greatest players of all time.

      Illustrated with muted color drawings depicting Robinson at different points in his remarkable life, this biography of the first African-American major league baseball player emphasizes the influence of race and family on his career and his personal life. This is a straightforward if somewhat fictionalized introduction to a baseball legend for newly independent readers. A list of important dates is appended.
