From the Publisher
They play for love. They play for money. On soggy softball fields. And in front of the ivy at Wrigley Field. And, wherever they play, the Chicago Sun-Times photo staff is there. For 75 years, photographers from the Daily Times, the Sun, the Daily News and the Sun-Times have shoved to the front row to capture the cigar-smoke atmosphere and Cracker Jack feel of sports. This is the first major photo book that documents Chicago's first love--sports.
