The special quality that made baseball America's preeminent pastime was never more evident than in the pre-World War II period. The game was played in cities and small towns, and the generation of national heroes represented by Babe Ruth was giving way to a new crop of stars, including Joe DiMaggio and Ted Williams. In these interviews (previously published in another format in Baseball Hobby News), major league players Ethan Allen, Johnny Berardino, Sam Chapman, Tommy Holmes, Eddie Joost, Marty Marion, Barney McCosky, Terry Moore, Wally Moses, Ray Mueller, Billy Rogell, Johnny Sain, Rip Sewell, Edgar Smith, Virgil Trucks, Bill Voiselle, Bill Werber, and Al Zarilla reflect on that special period in baseball history and their careers.
