dead ball era baseball
old man
I love baseball and to read old time baseball stories and players views of the game. But I found this tough to stick with. Well read just didn't care for author, or his views.
Dead Ball Era

Not the most exciting book, but it is definitly a rare look into baseball's "dead ball era." It is also very well read.
