"Baseball when the grass was real" by Donald Honig. It is like the second version of "Glory of their Times"

“I was such a dangerous hitter I even got intentional walks during batting practice.”
Casey Stengel

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.

The Fireside Book of Baseball, edited by Charles Einstein. A collection of first person accounts, newspaper game accounts, articles and essays on Baseball. There were three volumes and a fourth which is a summary of the first three. First came out in the 1950's. Nothing else comes close.

I’ve thoroughly enjoyed Edward Achorn’s writing. I see his one on Old Hoss Radbourne has already been mentioned so I’d add “The Summer of Beer and Whiskey” about the rise of the American Association and Chris Von der Ache’s wild St Louis Browns.
