Bookmonger, John J. Miller, National Review, Oscar Charleston

My first podcast on OSCAR CHARLESTON went live today. I’m grateful to my friend John Miller for the opportunity to join him on The Bookmonger and tell a bit of Oscar’s story.

Have a listen here.

 

The libraries are going to be full of OSCAR CHARLESTON,

Gus Palas, Library Journal

surely, after this nice review in Library Journal.

Quoth one Gus Palas:

In this thorough account, Beer has created a definitive work on Charleston’s life and accomplishments. The result is a fascinating story and an important piece of sports history.

I ask you, dear reader, what self-respecting librarian could fail to order this book after reading such words? I would shudder to meet such a person.

Anyway, my thanks to Mr. Palas!
