NY: Warner Books, 1988. Book. Near Fine. Hardcover. Inscribed by Author(s). 1st Edition. Ashe wrote a piece for the New York Times (November 13, 1988) that ended with this paragraph: Proportionately, the black athlete has been more successful than any other group in any other endeavor in American life. And he and she did it despite legal and social discrimination that would have dampened the ardor of most participants. The relative domination of blacks in American sports will continue into the foreseeable future. Enough momentum has been attained to insure maximum sacrifice for athletic glory. Now is the time for our esteemed sports historians to take another hard look at our early athletic life, and revise what is at present an incomplete version of what really took place..
