Description:
From Honus Wagner to Johnny Bench, Baseball As I Have Known It covers sixty-six seasons of America's national sport. Fred Lieb, the dean of baseball writers, tells about its heroes, rogues, controversies, and grand plays. He broke in as a sportswriter in the Polo Grounds press box in 1911. In 1933, in the midst of the Depression, Lieb was fired from the New York Post and began a freelance career writing about his beloved sport. Baseball As I Have Known It, first published in 1977 when Lieb was eighty-nine years old, remains a vital record of a glorious bygone era. In superb style, Lieb comments on changes in baseball over the decades and tells inside stories about great events and immortal players.
