Book Review: A Big Box of Chocolates
Summary: 5 Stars
Once in a very great while, someone sends baseball a great big valentine in book form (David Lamb's Stolen Season comes immediately to mind). Such it is with Collins' book. The Last Best League reminds us of why some of us fell in love with the game to begin with - the pace, the sounds, the smells, the kids without the arrogance. It certainly is the best piece of baseball non-fiction I've read in quite a number of years
