This book is great reading for any baseball fan, regardless of whether you're a cubs fan (which I'm not). The reader receives the benefit of what must have been an enormous amount of research into not just the statistic achievement of the franchise, but also of the personalities of the people who created the history and the circumstance in which they made their marks. In addition, the information is conveyed in a manner that is easy and fun to consume.

An absolute must for any die hard Cub fan! A work of tremendous research providing the entire Cubs history, great (not-so-great)and forgotten players, teams through the years, the cub faithful and the history of Wrigley Field. I ordered 10 copies and passed them out to my friends. Even if you're not a Cubs fan, you will enjoy the author's fun presentment of facts and his enlightening statistical analysis about this original NL franchise. Bravo to Doug Myers.

Any Cubs fans interest in the heritage of his team must read Essential Cubs; it's the most complete book ever for Cubs fanatics! Highly recommended!

My son announce that he is a Cubs Fan! So, to help make sure he knows important things, I thought this book would be a great place to start.
Now, this book is going to take a long time for my young son to read, but I find it very fascinating!! A great book.

For all the diehard Cub fans out there, this is a very good book. It's a great reference book and very enjoyable to read.
