Darryl Brock's "If I Never Get Back." Fictional but essentially the story of the Red Stockings of the 1860s-70s period, as told by a time-traveling narrator. Wright Brothers, etc., are key figures. Tremendous baseball research went into this book.

Another Brock historical novel is "Havana Heat," about Dummy Taylor and McGraw's Giants touring in Cuba.
