Final Post

I would recommend A True Hero; A Life of Hank Aaron to my friends because all of my friends are interested in the history of sports and its players, and this book hits the history of both. This book is most similar to Fences because Cory Maxson gives up his sports dream although being looked at by many college recruits. Although Hank Aaron does not give up his dream to play baseball but he is pushed down many a time because of his skin color, considering he lived during the time of slavery. The beginning consisted many slave stories which were really dark and gloomy. But towards the end when he is becoming a professional baseball player the book is very happy, and merry. I would really like to read another sports bibliography because I am very interested in the sports, and the teams, and players involved in it.
