Golenbock Peter
The Forever Boys: The Bittersweet World of Major League Baseball As Seen Through the Eyes of the Men Who Played One More Time
Birch Lane Press 1992. Book. Near-Fine. Hardcover. 8vo - over 7�" - 9�" tall. Near-fine condition. NO remainder marks or price clippings. Price inside dustcover: $19.95. Number line: 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1. 391 pages. Illustrated throughout with photos. Tight spine clean pages. NO writing marks or tears inside book. From Publishers Weekly Golenbock displayed his talent for oral history in his books on the Brooklyn Dodgers Bums and New York Yankees Dynasty . Here he profiles the first year of the Senior Baseball League a competitive league of former professional players over age 35. Golenbock who followed the pennant-winning St. Petersburg Pelicans through tryouts winning and losing streaks injuries and bus rides criss-crossing Florida conveys vivid portraits of individuals determined to extend their declining but still formidable talents. Some like St. Pete manager Bobby Tolan and his pitching coach Dock Ellis were controversial stars in the major leagues. All describe the family hardships organizational politics racism and personal disillusionment that accompany the joy of playing the game. Briskly written and entertaining the book also records perhaps for the first time a well-known player tradition: the hilariously biased proceedings of a ``kangaroo court''--a cherished opportunity to hound teammates about misplays on the field gluttonous eating habits or anything else that amuses the court ``judges''--an experience not to be missed.

GOLENBOCK PETER
The Spirit Of St. Louis: A History Of The St. Louis Cardinals And Browns
Avon Books New York: 2000. Hardcover with dustjacket. Very good condition. A glorious celebration of the Great American Game and of the city that loves it so. It is a love affair that began in 1874 when a band of local boosters raised $20000 to start a professional ballclub and it has never waned - from the glory days of Rogers Hornsby and Grover Cleveland Alexander through the magnificent eve of Stan Musial to Mark McGwire's record-smashing fin de millennium. But a chronicle of the accomplished National League Cardinals who trail only the Yankees in World Series titles wouldn't give the complete St. Louis baseball picture. "Peter Golenbock has been a prolific chronicler of baseball and its most colorful teams In this book St. Louis' rich baseball histsory is vividly rendered with insight humor and affection." - Bob Costas NBC Sports ISBN: 0380976609. Avon Books, New York: 2000 hardcover

"On the field he played and managed with an aggressive intensity that sometimes spilled over into fury. Billy was one of the great managers of baseball's modern era perhaps the greatest. In every new job he built losing teams into immediate wnners. The Minnesota Twins Detroit Tigers Texas Rangers Oakland Athletics and the New York Yankees all triumphed with his exciting 'Billyball' style of play - and they all fired him because his off-field escapades inevitably eclipsed his baseball achievements. This is a rich engrossing intimate portrait of a little guy an American everyman who found fame fortune all the booze and women he wanted - but was undone by the very fantasy he chased.
