Book Description

The author of Baseball's Greatest Games provides a close-up look at five of the greatest World Series ever, from 1912 to 1991, and the extraordinary events and athletes that changed sports history.

Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal

Grade 6-8-Gutman selects what he considers the five most exciting World Series of all time-1912, 1924, 1947, 1975, and 1991-and supplies a play-by-play description of each game. The volume is well researched; the information is accurate and the author only uses quotes that have been documented in print or on tape. Told in an interesting and straightforward manner, the narrative avoids the overly descriptive prose that sportswriters relied on many decades ago. Well-chosen, captioned black-and-white photographs of players in action, posing, and celebrating appear throughout. This volume should not be confused with Bill Gutman's book of the same title (Random, 1973), which covers six different World Series. Baseball fans will love this one.

More About the Author

This is hard. I'm a pretty regular Jersey guy who spent fifteen years trying to write newspaper articles, magazine articles, screenplays, books for adults, and just about everything else before I discovered the one thing I'm good at--writing fiction for kids. I aim for kids who DON'T like to read, and hopefully the kids who DO like to read will enjoy my stuff too. For all the gory details about me, check out my web site.
