From 1865 through 1896, African Americans succeeded spectacularly in sports. It was this period that gave rise to Jack Johnson, the first Black heavy weight champion; Marshall Taylor, "the world's fastest cyclist"; and Isaac Murphy, the first three-time winner of the Kentucky Derby.Ashe, Arthur R., Jr. is the author of 'Hard Road to Glory: A History of the African Athlete, 1619-1918, Vol. 1', published 1993 under ISBN 9781567430066 and ISBN 1567430066.
