Arthur Ashe

The book I read was Arthur Ashe. Written by Ted Wessberg. Arthur Ashe was born in 1943 in Richmond, Virginia. Arhtur was a world champion tennis player. He was 10 when he strated playing tennis. He also helped the country win the Davis Cup in 1968 one of 7 times he was part of a victories. The 22 year old conners, a self taught southpaw from Belleville, Illionois, had burst onto the tennis scene only a couple of year earlier and was now taking the tennis worlk by storm. Arthur Ashe was almost 32, when he died of a heart attack. I rate this book four stars
