"The Soul of Baseball, A Roadtrip through Buck Oneil's America" by Joe Posnaski. I was first introduced to Buck in Ken Burns' great Baseball documentary, and had the good fortune to hear him speak in Kansas City a few times. This portrait of a man who lived through some of the worst racism in America and came through it with no bitterness is a good salve for what we have seen in recent years. As one of the reviewers said, "If your eyes aren't moist after reading this, the air is too dry in you coffin."

Regards,

D-Ray
