Reflections on Roberto

By Phil Musick

Book Overview

At a time of unprecedented success for Latin American players in Major League Baseball, Reflections on Roberto offers a colorful and moving examination of the legacy left by one of the most dynamic players in baseball history, and someone who was undoubtedly one of its most selfless humanitarians. Legendary Pittsburgh Pirates outfielder Roberto Clemente died tragically almost 30 years ago during a mission of mercy to aid Nicaraguan earthquake victims, but his impact on the game will never be forgotten. Along with numerous essays, stories, and sidebars by author Phil Musick, Reflections on Roberto offers hundreds of color and black-and-white photos of Clemente, the man who led the way for players born outside the United States.
