Before the rise of the Brooklyn Dodgers in the 1940s, baseball was a game of white men, cloth caps and concrete walls. Branch Rickey, Larry MacPhail, Jackie Robinson and Pete Reiser helped to change the sport as America knew it. This book presents an exploration of how a crucial decade of Dodger accomplishments transformed American baseball.
