What are some good books about the Negro Leagues?

John Sickels posted that marvelous photograph of Pop Lloyd, which got me thinking about the Negro Leagues.

 I am looking for reading material about the Negro Leagues.  Anybody have any recommendations? 

I didn't see any Negro League books at the bookstore the other day, so I decided to conduct a little research and do some bargain shopping online.

Addtionally, who is your favorite Negro Leaguer that never played in the big leagues?  My favorite is Martin Dihigo because he pitched all over North America and the Caribbean.  He's in the National Baseball HOF, Cuban HOF, Mexican HOF, Dominican Republic HOF and Venezuelan HOF!
