George Bowering is a Canadian writer who has authored a number of baseball books. Here he takes all 26 letters of the Alphabet and has created 130 between-inning takes, five for each letter. For an example I comes out to Inches, Indians, Interleague, Injuries and Italy. Has 222 pages, is a quick and interesting read. The front and rear cover has some smudges, the spine is a little worn, the pages are in very good- condition. I have many other books on baseball fans.
