BookPage: Strong Inside “Hard to Put Down”

November 25, 2014

bookpage_logo_headerThe BookPage review is out, and it’s a strong one. Writes Keith Herrell: “Strong Inside is superbly written, hard to put down and fascinating for sports fans and non-sports fans alike. Check out the complete review here. BookPage was also kind enough to do a Q&A with me on the book, in which I reveal that my childhood dog Maggie would finish my cereal (sitting on the dining room table) each morning. Read it here.

  • “In a magnificently reported, nuanced
    but raw account of basketball and racism in the South during the 1960s, Andrew Maraniss tells the story of Perry Wallace’s struggle, loneliness, perseverance and eventual self-realization. A rare story about physical and intellectual courage that is both shocking and triumphant. ”

    Bob Woodward, Washington Post associate editor and author

Watch Andrew Maraniss talk about his inspiration to write Strong Inside, featuring archival footage of Perry Wallace in action.
