Brown Enough by Ken Ohm

Brown Enough by Ken Ohm

One of the Kansas Notable books of 2019, this book is part historical fiction part memoir. This book is based on the true story of a baseball team in Emporia, Kansas in 1956. The team, Brown bombers was an eleven man mixed race baseball team who thrive athletically as the team tolerates racism as a cost of playing a game they love. The story is told from the lone Caucasian who was deemed brown enough to play on the team.

A good read for any reader of sports fiction or nonfiction or a reader of historical fiction.

Happy Reading
