Sturm, James, 1965-
Satchel Paige : striking out Jim Crow / At head of title: Center for Cartoon Studies presents by James Sturm & Rich Tommaso ; with an introduction by Gerald Early. - 1st ed. - New York Jump at the Sun, 2007. - 89 p. : ill. ; 26 cm.
Baseball Hall of Famer Leroy "Satchel" Paige (1906-1982) changed the face of the game in a career that spanned five decades. Much has been written about this larger-than-life pitcher, but when it comes to Paige, fact does not easily separate from fiction. He made a point of writing his own history, and then rewriting it. A tall, lanky fireballer, he was arguably the Negro League's hardest thrower, most entertaining storyteller and greatest gate attraction.
