On the Shoulders of Giants - Kareem Abdul-Jabbar -4 stars

[Booknblues]

In his book On the Shoulders of Giants: My Journey Through the Harlem Renaissance, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar looks at the history of Harlem and what is known about the Harlem Renaissance and examines the three facets of the Renaissance, the writers, the basketball and the music of blues and jazz and how it effected him.

I found the interplay of these elements interesting and was curious to learn more about the history of Harlem.
