Descriere magazin:
Read the captivating biography of Abe Saperstein, originator of the Harlem Globetrotters, which is called meticulously researched and written in an easy and entertaining style by Booklist in a starred review. The original Harlem Globetrotters weren\'t from Harlem, and they didn\'t start out as globetrotters. The talented all-Black team, started by Jewish immigrant Abe Saperstein, was from Chicago\'s South Side and toured the Midwest in Saperstein\'s model-T. But with Saperstein\'s savvy and the players\' skills, the Globetrotters would become a worldwide sensation. Globetrotter: How Abe Saperstein Shook Up the World of Sports is the fascinating biography of Saperstein, a five-foot-three promoter who made an amazing impact in a sport where height is at a premium: basketball. After Saperstein founded the team in the 1920s, they battled everything from blizzards to bigotry, steadily building a reputation for talent and comedy until their footprint covered the entire world. Abe Saperstein\'s impact went well beyond the Harlem Globetrotters. He helped keep baseball\'s Negro Leagues alive, was a force in getting pitching great Satchel Paige his shot at the majors, and befriended Olympic star Jesse Owens when he fell on hard times. When Saperstein started the American Basketball League, he pioneered the three-point shot, which has dramatically changed the sport. Globetrotter reveals the tireless work and impressive achievements of a man and a basketball team that made millions of people laugh, gasp, and applaud at their astounding performances. The Harlem Globetrotters weren\'t from Harlem, and they didn\'t start out as globetrotters. Globetrotter is the fascinating biography of Abe Saperstein, a Jewish immigrant who took an obscure group of Black basketball players from Chicago\'s South Side, created the Harlem Globetrotters, and turned them into a worldwide sensation.
