Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. First Paperback Printing. 451 pp. Edge and corner wear with minor creasing on the spine; no interior markings. It was a time when America played to win, and when the nation was passionate, even patriotic, about baseball. But just below the surface of all the heroism and the hoopla was another place - a place where tourists, gamblers and journalists gathered when eight Chicago White Sox ball players stood accused of throwing the 1919 world series and were banned from baseball forever. A novel of baseball and heroes, of innocence and corruption, featuring some all-star characters including Ty Cobb, Joe Jackson, William Randolph Hearst, and George M. Cohan. Book.
