A must for every Twins fan. A fun and enjoyable book that will provide hours of entertainment for the baseball fan in your life! -- Publisher Comments
About the Author
Born in Germany and moving to Taylors Falls, Minnesota at a young age, John soon fell in love with baseball and the Milwaukee Braves as they ripped those hated New York Yankees in the 1957 World Series. In 1961 the Minnesota area was blessed with their own team when the Washington Senators moved to Minnesota and became the Minnesota Twins. John has followed the Twins ever since! Twins Trivia is the first book that John has written and published and you can tell by looking at the book that it was a labor of love.

Wonderful baseball reading,
By Henry O'Day (Florida) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Twins Trivia (Paperback)
Twins Trivia is a nice little book that brings back many Minnesota Twins memories. I received the book as a gift and as I sat down to read the book, I was shocked to see all those Minnesota Twins names that I grew up with. What a fun book and a great Dad's day gift. You can't go wrong.
