{"product_id":"the-last-hero-a-life-of-henry-aaron","title":"The Last Hero: A Life of Henry Aaron","description":"In the thirty-four years since his retirement, Henry (Hank) Aaron’s reputation has only grown in magnitude. But his influence extends beyond statistics, and at long last here is the first definitive biography of one of baseball’s immortal figures.\nÂ\nBased on meticulous research and extensive interviews The Last Hero reveals how Aaron navigated the upheavals of his timeâ fighting against racism while at the same time benefiting from racial progressâ and how he achieved his goal of continuing Jackie Robinson’s mission to obtain full equality for African Americans, both in baseball and society, while he lived uncomfortably in the public eye. Eloquently written, detailed and penetrating, this is a revelatory portrait of a complicated, private man who through sports became an enduring American icon.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0375424857\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.0375424857.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Bryant, Howard\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
