This review is from: Red a Baseball Life (Hardcover)
In researching the creation of a manuscript for another ex-ballplayer, I thought this book would be valuable research material. In the end, the price was right, the book in the condition in which it was promised and, to my surprise and delight, the book was signed by the authors! How about that?
