Dave is right, the Fleming book is THE BEST on the 1908 season.... Glory of Their Times is a wonderful book. Both are great if you're interested in the times of the players in T206... but they are nonfiction books.

Bruce mentions If I Never Get Back, a book that I praised as about the best fiction baseball book, UNTIL I read The Celebrant. The former is about the 1869ish Reds, the latter set about 1907ish. Both are really good books. Read The Celebrant if you only read one.
