Reseña del libro "Jackie Robinson: My Own Story (en Inglés)"
Jackie Robinson: My Own Story is a memoir written by the legendary baseball player Jackie Robinson himself. The book chronicles Robinson's life, from his early childhood in Georgia to his college years at UCLA and his groundbreaking career in Major League Baseball.

He also discusses his personal life, including his marriage to Rachel Robinson, his family, and his activism in the civil rights movement.The book offers a unique insight into Robinson's life and career, as well as the social and political climate of the time. Robinson's writing is candid and honest, and his story is both inspiring and thought-provoking.
