Andrew Maraniss' New Book Is a Captivating Read
Category: SPORTS
Strong Inside is the story of Perry Wallace, who was the first African-American basketball player in the Southeastern Conference.  It's part sports book and part sociological case study. Maraniss is able to emotionally insert the reader into the middle of the country's civil rights movement of the late 1960s.
