The Last Real Season: A Hilarious Look Back at 1975 - When Major Leaguers Made Peanuts, the Umpires Wore Red, and Billy Martin Terrorized Everyone
from Grand Central Publishing
Price: $17.15

Customer Review:

"This is a baseball biography. Not of a player, but of a season."
Mike Shropshire's newest book focuses on one of his favorite subjects....the 1975 Texas Rangers and how terrible they were. The Last Real Season actually looks at major league baseball during the 1975 season. Back in the good old... more info

The Cheater's Guide to Baseball
from Houghton Mifflin
Price: $13.95

Customer Review:

Not quite history, not quite essay on mores of cheating, not quite anecdotal stories of baseball's cheaters, this lightweight and lightly cynical look at baseball's cheating history succeeds in holding the game in the respect it deserves.
Sidebars on how to cheat seem silly at first, but... more info

Seasons in Hell: With Billy Martin, Whitey Herzog and "The Worst Baseball Team in History"-The 1973-1975 Texas Rangers
from Bison Books
Price: $12.21

Customer Review:

I'm a life long Rangers fan, but this book was weaker than I had hoped. I was hoping for a great read. It showed promise early, but then flamed out much like Ranger's rookie phenom David Clyde in 1973. Shropshire spends more time trying to be witty and failing than he does in writing well about... more info

An Hour To Kill: A True Story of Love, Murder, and Justice in a Small Southern Town (St. Martin's True Crime Library)
from St. Martin's True Crime
Price: $6.99

Customer Review:

I bought this book based on all of the five-star reviews and the abject raves from other readers, and am I ever disappointed. It's a run-of-the-mill murder "mystery" that is solved fairly quickly, with an uninteresting departure of focusing on the wrong guy. The "boy next door" stabbed to death... more info

Wild, High and Tight: The Life and Death of Billy Martin
from St Martins Pr

Customer Review:

Ever want to get to know someone famous that you have haven't met? This is absolutely the best of the many biographies I have ever read.

A Prophet with Honor : The Billy Graham Story
from Harper Perennial

Customer Review:

While this book ranks as the most comprehensive take on Graham's life and career, it suffers from two shortcomings. William Martin is rather too uncritical of his subject, and, like most other Graham biographers, he depends too heavily on Graham's memory. Graham has repeatedly proven to be an... more info

This Crazy Thing Called Love: The Golden World and Fatal Marriage of Ann and Billy Woodward
from St Martins Mass Market Paper

Customer Review:

Author Susan Braudy admits that she began writing this book to prove that Dominick Dunne's book The Two Mrs. Grenvilles and Truman Capote's unfinished novel Answered Prayers: The Unfinished Novel contained the REAL story about the tragic 1955 Woodward murder. While doing a thorough job of research,... more info

The Ballad of Billy and George: The Tempestuous Baseball Marriage of Billy Martin and George Steinbrenner
from The Lyons Press
Price: $18.21

Customer Review:

Boxing had Cosell and Ali. In an earlier age baseball had McGraw and Mathewson. The 1970's and 1980's brought us Billy Martin and George Steinbrenner. Phil Pepe is certainly qualified to write about this Yankee twosome. The book briefly covers the careers of both George and Billy leading up to their... more info
