New Cap Anson Biography
Posted By: <b>Hankron </b><p>There is a brand new biography of Cap Anson out. If I am correct, there hasn't been a bio of Anson in a long, long time. I have not read it yet, but do know the author. The author is a longwinded, enthusiastic and incredibly meticulous person: whether this results in in a worthwhile read would only be conjecture on my part (I always hope for pictures). Anyway, the book can be ordered at the following link.<BR><BR><a href="http://capanson.com/cap_anson_books.html" target=_new>http://capanson.com/cap_anson_books.html</a>

New Cap Anson Biography
Posted By: <b>Jeff S</b><p>David is right, it's the first in a long, long time. The only previous book-length biography of Anson is Cap's own book, "A Ball Player's Career," published in 1900. Half of that book is about Spalding's world tour, with <sarcasm>thrilling, suspenseful</sarcasm> chapters on visiting the Pyramids and socializing on the boat.
