This review is from: Red Sox Heroes of Yesteryear (Hardcover)

Herb Crehan has put together a magnificant collection of interviews and through his eyes/prose has made a Red Sox fan out of me. I began reading the book to my seven year old son in an attempt to relate to his young boy's passion for the team. What a wonderful way to spend time together and I highly recommend this interesting and insightful read to those of any age.

This is wonderful reading. The book is a collection of articles on former Red Sox players that should interest both Red Sox fans and baseball fans in general. Mr. Crehan obviously loves baseball and this love is evident in his writing.
