 SHOCKER! DISCOVERING A SILENT HERO OF BASEBALL'S GOLDEN AGE
Silent Hero of Baseball's Golden Age weaves a dozen baseball
people into the story, including Hall-of-Famers Brown first baseman
George Sisler, Yankee manager Miller Huggins, and spitball pitchers
Ed Walsh, Burleigh Grimes, and Stan Coveleski. The book captures
their personalities and bonds of friendship, as well as their love
of the game. It follows them from rising stars to veterans on the
way down. Like Urban Shocker, most of these men were household names
in the Teens or 1920's, but are merely dim memories now. Like Urban,
they too have stories worth telling.
