Well, Barry - I bet I have as extensive a Baseball Library as anyone I know, but I've only read about 10% of the 250 or so books collecting dust on my shelves...and yet there are 3 more on my Amazon wish list...am I a hoarder?
perhaps, but really, I'm just looking for that one thing almost all of us are...no, not a Wagner...or even a '52 Mantle....

A ROUND TUIT!

The last one of my collection I read cover-to-cover was our own Hank Thomas's masterful bio of his grandfather, Walter Johnson...which I once again urge everyone to check out.
