Dan Bretta"Shoeless Joe and Ragtime Baseball" by Harvey Frommer, "The Player: Christy Mathewson, Baseball, and the American Century" by Philip M. Seib, "Honus Wagner: A Biography" by Dennis DeValeria, Jeanne Burke DeValeria. Those are all books I've read in the last couple of years that were enjoyable. If you want a good nineteenth century era book you should try "Slide, Kelly, Slide: The Wild Life and Times of Mike "King" Kelly, Baseball's First Superstar" by Martin Appel.
