The uplifting, unlikely, and inspirational true story of the
friendships formed between Cam Perron—a white,
baseball-obsessed teenager from Boston—and hundreds of
former professional Negro League players, who were still
awaiting the recognition and compensation that they deserved
from Major League Baseball more than fifty years after their
playing days were over. Featuring the players'
fascinating stories and original photographs.
Cam Perron always loved history, and from an early age, he had
a knack for collecting. But when he was twelve and bought a set
of Topps baseball cards featuring several players from the
Negro Leagues, something clicked.
Cam started writing letters to former Negro League players in
2007, asking for their autographs and a few words about their
careers. He got back much more than he expected. The players
responded with detailed stories about their glory days on the
field, and the racism they faced, including run-ins with the
KKK. They explained how they were repeatedly kept out of the
major leagues and confined to the historic but lower-paying
Negro Leagues, even after Jackie Robinson—who got his
start in the Negro Leagues—broke the color barrier. By
the time Cam finished middle school, letters had turned into
phone calls, and he was spending hours a day talking with the
players.
In these conversations, many of the players revealed that their
careers had been unrecognized over time, and they'd fallen out
of touch with their former teammates. So Cam, along with a
small group of fellow researchers, organized the first annual
Negro League Players Reunion in Birmingham, Alabama in 2010. At
the celebratory, week-long event, fifteen-year-old Cam and the
players—who were in their 70s, 80s, and 90s—finally
met in person. They quickly became family.
As Cam and the players returned to the reunion year after year,
Cam became deeply involved in a complicated mission to help
many players get pension money that they were owed from Major
League Baseball. He also worked to get a Negro League museum
opened in Birmingham, and stock it with memorabilia.
Sports fans—and anyone who enjoys a heartfelt
story—will have their eyes opened by this book about
unlikely friendships, the power of memories, and just how far a
childhood interest can go.
