I just picked up a very unusual book entitled "Twelve Perfect Innings- A Pretty Good Game" by Weldon Myers. It was published in 1961 and features an 85 page inning by inning account
written in poetry of Harvey Haddix's near perfect game in 1959.
I collect books on no-hitters and perfect games, but I have never come across this one before. It really is a beautifully written poem by a former English teacher and Creative Writing professor at Converse College. He also was a college baseball player and huge baseball fan.
I assume that this book is rare, but can any of the book experts out there chime in on what they know about it?
Thanks!
PS- I also threw in a picture of my ticket to the greatest pitched game ever in the history of baseball.
