Ten Books That Changed Baseball

Ajutor

Copertina de Aron Paul Aron: Lineup (ePUB)

Focusing on the ten most influential baseball books of all time, this volume explores how these landmark works changed the game itself and made waves in American society at large. Satchel Paige’s Pitchin’ Man informed the dialog surrounding integration. Ring Lardner’s You Know Me Al changed the way Americans viewed their baseball heroes and influenced the work of Hemingway and Fitzgerald. Bill James’s Baseball Abstract transformed the way managers–including those in fields other than baseball–analyzed numbers. Pete Rose’s My Story and My Prison Without Bars exposed and deepened a cultural divide that paved the way for Donald Trump.
