Charlie Sifford

64 pp. | Morgan | January, 1998 | Library ISBN 1-883846-27-7
(4) 4-6 Great Athletes series. Brief biographies focus on the still-evolving career of tennis player Sampras, and the experiences of Charlie Sifford, an African-American sportsman who fought to break the color line by joining the Professional Golfers Association during the 1950s. The writing is competent, but seldom reflects the excitement of the sports. Poorly reproduced black-and-white photographs accompany the texts. Bib., glos., ind.
