- Shades of glory : the negro leagues and the story of African-American baseball / by Hogan, Lawrence D.,1944-(CARDINAL)170487; National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum.(CARDINAL)152123;
Introduction -- Early days -- Before Jim Crow -- The great independents -- Organized league ball -- The new Negro -- Hope for the future -- The breakdown -- Recovery and demise -- Crossing the color line -- Forgotten legacy -- Negro league statistics.Drawing on years of research, Shades of Glory traces the history of black baseball from the 19th century to the first great teams, such as the Cuban Giants, and on to the era of the vibrant barnstorming teams from the East Coast, Chicago, and Cuba. The unparalleled Rube Foster started the first Negro League in 1920, with such dominant teams as the Chicago American Giants and the Kansas City Monarchs. Pittsburgh soon produced two of the greatest teams of all time, the Homestead Grays and the Pittsburgh Crawfords, featuring such stars as Satchel Paige, John Gibson, Cool Papa Bell, and many more. Their superb brand of baseball rivaled the best of the major leagues until the historic signing of Jackie Robinson by the Brooklyn Dodgers in 1947. Shades of Glory chronicles a bygone era of black baseball and the stars who were shadowed by racial prejudice, but now shine forth in all their sparkling brilliance.- Subjects: Negro leagues; African American baseball players; Baseball; Ligues des Noirs (Base-ball); Joueurs de base-ball noirs américains; Base-ball;

We hear his name and the numbers 60 and 714 instantly spring to mind. Prodigious homers are still described as 'Ruthian.' What other athlete had his name turned into an adjective? Ruth belonged to the Golden Age of Sport, for of all the names that dominated the roaring 20s none was bigger than Babe. Known for devouring everything that appealed to him, he possessed an insatiable appetite for life. Combining historic photographs, newsreel footage, and film clips with reminiscences by former teammates, journalists, chance acquaintances and biographers, this film presents a look at the life of the man who truly made baseball the national pastime.MPAA Rating: Not rated.DVD, Region 1, Dolby Digital 2.0 stereo, original television presentation aspect ratio, 1.33:1.- Subjects: Sports videos.; Biographies.; History.; Video recordings for the hearing impaired.; Documentaires.; Vidéos pour personnes handicapées auditives.; Sports films.; Documentary films.; Ruth, Babe, 1895-1948.; Ruth, Babe 1895-1948.; New York Yankees (Baseball team); New York Yankees (Baseball team); Baseball players; Baseball; Joueurs de base-ball; Baseball; Baseball players;
