If you like basketball, sports, civil rights history, cultural analysis, or just good storytelling, this is the book for you. Maraniss really captures context and the daily struggles of a true, relatively unknown pioneer. It's inspiring and informative -- I learned so much about the city I grew up in and a person I (it turns out) knew so little about. Get this one now and you'll finish it quickly, it's very difficult to put down.
