Whites story is interwoven with ours as a nation. His basketball days were shaped byand in a few cases, helped shapeevents of monumental importance. Race relations, the war in Vietnam, and political tumult across the land punctuated Whites years as both a Kansas Jayhawk and Boston Celtic. Bodanza shows how, through his years on the court, the point guard from St. Louis, Missouri, maintained a steady contribution to the game that became his passion while still a child.
