Requests:  0 Summary:  When journalist Terence Moore was 12 years old, he treasured his poster of Henry Aaron. Years later, Aaron would sign it for him: "Best wishes to Terry." Later still, Moore would be named an honorary pall bearer at the home run king's funeral, staying up late into the night with Aaron's widow, Billye, to get the obituary just right for the program. Friends and family knew Aaron as quick-witted, hilarious, and fiercely opinionated beyond what was shown in public. With the encouragement of Aaron's family, Moore now shares this intimate perspective on the baseball legend, the culmination of decades of friendship and correspondence. The Real Hank Aaron captures the icon's contagious laugh and pointed views, from the depth of his admiration for Jackie Robinson to his true thoughts on Barry Bonds and the steroid era.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Art, Music & Recreation 796.35709 Aaron Mo Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kapaa Public Library Adult Nonfiction 796.35709 Aaron Mo Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kihei Public Library Adult Nonfiction 796.35709 Aaron Mo Checked In Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Nonfiction 796.35709 Aaron Mo Checked In Add Copy to MyList Pahoa P/S Library Adult Biography B Aaron Mo Checked In Add Copy to MyList
