‎Boots Poffenberger: Hurler Hero Hellraiser‎

‎South Orange New Jersey: Summer Game Books 2014. INSCRIBED & SIGNED by the AUTHOR directly on the half title page. Brand New. In perfect condition but for a touch of rubbing to the cover like you sometimes find in any new book store. Flat uncreased spine. Sharp corners. Fresh crisp - obviously never read. Illustrated with a few b/w photos. Lists of chapter notes. Bibliographical references. Career stats. Index. From the publisher: "Boots Poffenberger spent only parts of three seasons in the major leagues but is unquestionably among the wildest figures of his era--one that included Dizzy Dean Bobo Newsom and Van Lingle Mungo. Boots was every bit as much an all-star character as the others. He enraged management by playing by his own set of rules; delighted sport writers with an endless stream of crazy missteps and one-liners; and frustrated teammates who in the end always forgave him because of his warmth and genuine character. To the ballplayers and the many fans who adored him it was just "Boots being Boots." This carefully researched and affectionately written biography captures the essence of a true baseball original. Follow Boots rise and fall in the big leagues where his fondness for beer earned him the nickname "The Prince of Pilsner." Enjoy his resurrection in the minor leagues including a 29-win season that amazingly did not earn him a return to The Show due to Boots' nonconformity. Read about him during World War II and his perilous assignment as a Marine Corps pitcher based in Hawaii. Finally get to know Boots in his later life as a small town local hero whose outsized personality and heart resonate with the locals still today. Boots story is one of a time gone by an antidote to today s game of baseball and America before big money and big media became so dominant.". INSCRIBED & SIGNED. First Edition. Softcover.
