    Me and Hank

    The story of a boy and his hero, baseball slugger Hank Aaron, 25 years after Aaron’s dramatic chase for baseball’s all-time career home run record, and an exploration of the hatred Aaron endured in chasing a white man’s record.

    This story is based on reporting for Sandy Tolan’s book, Me and Hank (Free Press, 2000).
