[Seth · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is a great baseball book, very different from the 1000s of other books out there. It spotlights 10 seasons that were memorable from a baseball standpoint, but also intertwines political and historical facts to show the state of the nation at the time. Basically spotlights 10 years in America and how baseball was affected.
