| Description: |
24 short stories, including the classic You Know Me Al collection, appear together in this annotated and copiously illustrated edition. Most of the stories describe real teams, real players, and real situations, and the annotation identifies the many references to the real world of early major league baseball that Lardner covered as a reporter. Includes 111 illustrations of ball players, teams, ball parks, newspaper items, and other memorabilia of one of the most fascinating and eventful eras in baseball history. |
| Synopsis: |
This is an annotated and copiously illustrated edition of 24 baseball stories by Ring W. Lardner, including the six classic stories later collected as You Know Me Al. Two-thirds of the stories describe real teams, real players, and real situations, and the annotation and illustrations serve to identify the references of early twentieth-century major league baseball that Lardner covered as a reporter. |
