Customer Review: Book in fine condition and comments from both Gibson and Jackson isightful, even for Old Timers. Would encourage young lads read the book as they can learn about the History of Baseball played in that era....
Customer Review: Subtitle this one "Mark Jumps the Shark." Frost, the author of a couple of outstanding books on golf history -- one of which was made into a not-so-bad Disney feature film -- trades in his clubs and tees for a Louisville Slugger and promptly waves and misses at what should have been an eminently... more info
Customer Review: THIS IS BY NO DOUBT ONE OF THE BEST SPORT BOOKS I HAVE EVER READ. EACH CHAPTER IS A MINI-BIOGRAPHY OF ONE OF THE PLAYERS ON THE BROOKLYN DODGERS OR NEW YORK YANKEES IN THE 1955 WORLD SERIES, MANY OF WHOM ARE NOW ENSHRINED IN THE BASEBALL HALL OF FAME.

Dimensions aside, it's pretty much as the description indicates. If you have an interest in the period covered it's not bad; covers... more info
Customer Review: Chris Wheeler is a top-notch commentator who has spent most of his working life in a dream job(s) with the Phillies. He is as much a part of the Phillies as the guy he shares the cover with, and his stories are delightful. I am sure he could fill many more books this size with stories from his... more info
