As star players for the 1955 World Champion Brooklyn Dodgers, and prior to that as the first black players to be candidates to break professional baseball's color barrier, Jackie Robinson and Roy Campanella would seem to be natural allies. But the two men were divided by a rivalry going far beyond the personality differences and petty jealousies of competitive teammates. Behind the bitterness were deep and differing beliefs about the fight for civil rights.

What did you love best about Jackie and Campy?
Each of them accepted their uniqueness and learned how to walk in it. They lived the best life they knew.
What did you like best about this story?
I like hearing the background story as well as the front story. I like how the author runs back and forth between the two things.
Which character – as performed by Lamarr Gulley – was your favorite?
My favorites are Jackie, Ricky and Camponella.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
I do not know. Jackie vs Camponella: Willingness to Make a Difference in Their Own Way.
Any additional comments?
I still have four more hours, and I plan to complete them. It is very soothing and interesting. My husband actually lay right in front of my computer while I was listening to the story and relaxed to take a little power nap. Hearing the clear narration did not bother him. Almost like a bedtime story, I guess. (smile) I listened to the first three hours over two different evenings.
