Book Reviews of Cracking the Show
Book Review: Boswell is the best baseball writer in America
Summary: 5 Stars
The title of my review is not hyperbole, as you will find if you read any of Thomas Boswell's fine baseball books ("Craking the Show" is the latest). The book features essays about players, teams, stadiums, season, statistics and Boswell's own unique perspective on the game. For example, Boswell is of the belief that Ted Williams did more damage to the art of hitting than any other player because of his insistance that batters should not swing at the first pitch. Boswell provides ample statistical proof to show that batters who do hit better! This is a great book for anyone interested in the national pastime.
