Biblio Files: talking about books

Harlem Globetrotters by George Vecsey
My edition is a seventh printing from 1974, and is therefore 30 years out of date. If you can find a more recent copy, it would probably be more informative. However, this is still worth reading. It talks about Abe Saperstein's founding the Harlem Globetrotters in 1927, and it gives a brief description of the team's history. It does not describe the earlier players in much depth; presumably, not much is known about them. The pictures(one per chapter) are black and white and not very good quality. The book often glosses over topics I would like to know more about. For anyone who wants to learn about the Globetrottters, or to just sit back with a book and learn something, this is a good book. Happy reading.
