Spinning the Globe: The Rise, Fall, and Return to Greatness of the Harlem Globetrotters Paperback - 2006
by Ben Green
The Harlem Globetrotters have long been a staple of American basketball. However, their origins and their renaissance are largely unknown. They began not in Harlem, but Chicago's South Side as the brainchild of Abe Saperstein. The team sustained the early days of the NBA only to be overshadowed by it, yet ultimately reemerging as national and global stars.

Description:
New York - London - Toronto: Harper, 2006. Book. Very Good. Trade Paperback. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. Very little to no wear. Quite clean. 'A beloved staple of American basketball since 1927, the Globetrotters have dazzled millions of fans, yet the true story of their amazing eighty years as a team has never been told until now. Rising from obscurity during the harsh years of the Great Depression, the Globetrotters, renowned as the best basketball team in the country by the 1950s, fell to the brink of bankruptcy in the 1990s. In tracing the Globetrotters' extraordinary journey, [the author] skilfully weaves together the complex issues of race, sports, and politics in America: from the Trotters' struggle with segregation to their reemergence as international superstars.' 419 pages..
