This comprehensive and dazzling collection of baseball facts will be an eye-opener for most avid fans and a delight for general readers. Dewey, a Nelson Algren Award-winning writer, and Acocella, a fan/journalist, serve a feast of facts beginning with the origin of the game. Their book covers the best of everything imaginable, from the game's most influential players to the most incredible plate appearances. Though some of the information may seem trivial, this is ultimately a delight to read. Many fans will refer to the valuable and up-to-date information here again and again. Recommended for sports collections.
