Description

Buck O'Neil's autobiography offers a unique perspective on baseball's past and America's racial landscape. A former player and manager in the Negro leagues, O'Neil shares stories from his barnstorming days with legendary players like Satchel Paige and Josh Gibson, as well as his experiences breaking down barriers in the major leagues. Through O'Neil's eyes, we see a bygone era of baseball, marked by talented African American players who were often overlooked or undervalued. His memoir is a fascinating account of the sport's history, intertwined with the story of America's struggle for racial equality. With I Was Right on Time, Buck O'Neil takes readers on a journey through his life and career, providing a fresh and engaging look at baseball's golden age.
