"Read it if you love baseball and want to find out more about one of its true heroes. Read it equally if you want to learn how Jim Crow robbed a baseball great of his true place in the game."
Andy Geller, New York Post, 06/07/2009
Review:"It would probably be difficult to write a boring book about Satchel Paige, and Tye certainly has not done so. Through exhaustive research, interviews, and correspondence with more than 350 people, he has surely given us a definitive account of the man and of the player."
Rob Klugman, Philadelphia Inquirer, 06/14/2009

Satchel: The Life and Times of an American Legend (Paperback) (ISBN: 9780812977974) Tye, Larry Quantity Available: 1
Book Description: Random House Trade, United States, 2010. Paperback. Book Condition: New. 209 x 140 mm. Brand New Book with Free Worldwide Delivery. He is that rare American icon who has never been captured in a biography worthy of him. Now, at last, here is the superbly researched, spellbindingly told story of athlete, showman, philosopher, and boundary breaker Leroy "Satchel" Paige. Through dogged research and extensive interviews, award-winning author and journalist Larry Tye has tracked down the truth about this majestic and enigmatic pitcher. Here is the stirring account of the child born to a poor Alabama washerwoman, the boy who earned his nickname from his enterprising work as a railroad porter, and the young man who took up baseball on the streets and in reform school before becoming the superstar hurler of the Negro Leagues.In unprecedented detail, Tye reveals how Paige, hurt and angry when Jackie Robinson beat him in breaking the Majors' color barrier, emerged at the improbable age of forty-two to help propel the Cleveland Indians to the World Series. ("Age is a case of mind over matter," he said. "If you don't mind, it don't matter.") Rewriting our history of baseball's integration with Paige in the starring role and separating truth from legend, Satchel is a story as large as this larger-than-life man.
