Bøger af Ron Thomas

This is Ron's first book. It took a while to get up the courage but he's pretty proud of it. The poems flow from seventy years of experience: farming childhood, love and sex, and travels of the world, of the word and of the mind.

In the first half of the twentieth century, pro basketball was tainted by racism, as African Americans were denied the opportunity to display their talents. Through in-depth interviews with players, their families, and league officials, this book tells the story of what basketball was really like for the first black NBA players.
