Reseña del libro "Jackie Robinson: The biography of African American Baseball player 42, his true faith, seasons and Legacy (en Inglés)"
The book Jackie Robinson unfolds the remarkable life of an American sports icon who transcended racial barriers and reshaped the landscape of Major League Baseball (MLB). Born in Cairo, Georgia, and raised in Pasadena, California, Robinson was a standout four-sport athlete, gaining prominence in football before making history in baseball.Breaking the color line on April 15, 1947, when he started at first base for the Brooklyn Dodgers, Robinson's entry into MLB marked the end of racial segregation in professional baseball. Inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1962, Robinson's legacy extends beyond his on-field achievements. Drafted during World War II, he courageously confronted segregation in the military, leading to an honorable discharge.Robinson's MLB career included winning the inaugural Rookie of the Year Award in 1947, six consecutive All-Star selections, and the National League Most Valuable Player Award in 1949-a groundbreaking achievement for a black player. Beyond the diamond, Robinson's impact on civil rights was profound, challenging segregation with his character, nonviolent approach, and talent. The book explores his post-baseball contributions, from becoming the first black television analyst in MLB to his groundbreaking roles in corporate America.This book provides a comprehensive portrait of a trailblazer, illuminating his enduring influence on sports, civil rights, and American society.
