The Dizziest Season, GH Fleming about the 1934 pennant races
July 2, 1903, Mike Sowell Delehanty dies, origin of leagues and reserve clause
The Fix is In, Daniel Ginsburg MUST read to understand
The Pitch That Killed, Mike Sowell need to read this to understand Chapman Mays
Now Wait A Minute Casey, Allen Maury the 1962 Mets, and their troubles
Ball Four, Jim Bouton everyone here's read it
those are a good start
Fiction
The Celebrant, Eric Greensberg
This book is the most enchanting, enjoyable fiction book anyone could find to read, especially if they're a fan of baseball circa 1910ish... an amazing book. If you think I'm wrong, read it, then explain to me what fiction book is better.
