wonderful book from early baseball


(4.5 stars)

Hop in your time machine and journey to the year 1912. St. Mary's college baseball nine is getting ready to start the season and you will have a front row seat. Delightful, nostalgic story of college baseball in early 20th century America brought alive by a first class narration.
