Daniel BrettaStump's "Cobb: A Biography" is a MUST read. I've read it twice. I had to reread it after picking up all those Matty McIntyre photos. I also second his recommendation on Richard Ben Cramer's "Joe DiMaggio" book, which I've also read twice. Going over my bookshelf I found another good one, "Memories of a Ballplayer: Bill Werber and Baseball in the 1930's" is excellent. And I found the Marquard book - it's by Larry D. Mansch and it's titled "Rube Marquard: the life and times of a Baseball Hall of Famer".
