This book celebrates a great American icon -- the Scholar Athlete. All-Americans like Supreme Court Justice Byron "Whizzer" White and Paul Robeson, who once was the most famous stage performer in the world. Their ranks are rapidly being diminished by pay for play and other schemes to professionalize college sports.
