Synopsis
To many fans, Hall of Famer Ted Williams is baseball. The Boston Red Sox left-fielder dominated the game in the 1940s, achieving astounding hitting records, including 521 home runs and a career .344 batting average; he was also the last player to bat .400 in a season. As good as he was, many wonder what the Splendid Splinter could have been if he hadn’t missed five years of the game serving as a pilot in World War II and Korea and two seasons due to injuries. In addition to hundreds of photographs, this attractive volume includes Williams’s candid words about his life on the field and off, a firsthand account that will certainly become a collector’s item for all baseball fans.

Reviews
The dominant hitter of his talented generation and last man to bat .400 for a season (.406, in fact), Williams in later life threw himself just as competitively into sport fishing, achieving membership in both the Baseball and Freshwater Fishing halls of fame. This new book of reminiscences features over 300 images, many previously unpublished.
