Very different from most Parker books, but a great book nonetheless.
Typical Robert Parker book; fast paced, not a lot of detail. Really great baseball facts and stories. Awesome how Parker intermixed the fictional tale with the facts of Jackie Robinson's historic move to break the color barrier in baseball. Fast and easy read. Spencer style of story.
Fictional account about bodyguard of Jackie Robinson. The bodyguard is a WWII vet dumped by his ex-wife. Imaginative with exemplary characterization. Parker at his best! This will appeal to both Parker and baseball history addicts.
