"The comprehensive and authoritative Arthur Ashe: A Life — a New York Times Notable Book — delves into the tennis legend’s off-court endeavors and places Ashe in the social and cultural context he helped transform. This copy is signed by author Raymond Arsenault, the John Hope Franklin Professor of Southern History at the University of South Florida, St. Petersburg, and one of the nation’s leading civil rights historians. “For those who have long admired Ashe, this close look at his life offers even more evidence that he was more than a great player; he was an extraordinary person…Arthur Ashe: A Life is among the best books about tennis I’ve ever read — it’s a deep, detailed, thoughtful chronicle of one of the country’s best and most important players.” -The New York Times Book Review

“Raymond Arsenault’s magisterial biography of Arthur Ashe reconstructs the life of a true gentleman and scholar-athlete, a champion on and off the court who became one of the most admirable figures in the history of sports.” -Ambassador Andrew Young"
