Press Box Red: The Story Of Lester Rodney,
Irwin Silber
Long before Branch Rickey signed Jackie Robinson to a Brooklyn Dodger contract in 1945, Lester Rodney, the newly hired and first sports editor of the "Communist Daily Worker", launched the campaign that proved decisive in eventually breaking baseball's color line. This title tells the story of that remarkable 11-year campaign.
