| Publisher Description: Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Ted Williams made a plea for Negro League star players to be considered for induction in the Baseball Hall of Fame. Satchel Paige was the first to be inducted in 1971, and 34 more players and executives have been inducted since. This book takes a look at the lives and careers of these Hall of Famers and how they changed the game forever. Project Webster represents a new publishing paradigm, allowing disparate content sources to be curated into cohesive, relevant, and informative books. To date, this content has been curated from Wikipedia articles and images under Creative Commons licensing, although as Project Webster continues to increase in scope and dimension, more licensed and public domain content is being added. We believe books such as this represent a new and exciting lexicon in the sharing of human knowledge. |
