There is no greater honor for anyone in baseball than being elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, New York. Since its creation in 1936, the Hall has inducted 346 individuals. Of this number, only 11 have been lawyers. This book celebrates this unique group, which consists of three players (Hughie Jennings, Jim O'Rourke, and Monte Ward); two managers (Miller Huggins and Tony La Russa); three executives (Larry MacPhail, Walter O'Malley, and Branch Rickey); and three commissioners (Happy Chandler, Bowie Kuhn, and Kenesaw Mountain Landis). Each inductee is the subject of a detailed essay that recounts their legal education, admission to the bar, and legal career. Written by either a law professor or a law librarian, the essays are the product of extensive research and are supplemented by an exhaustive set of notes.
