Book Reviews of The Little Red (Sox) Book: A Revisionist Red Sox History

Book Review: A nice idea for an essay but not a book
Summary: 2 Stars

An excellent, humorous, inventive idea for an essay. But not nearly enough material here for a book. It contains a ton of filler and is haphazardly arranged (except for the core of the book). Not enough bang for your buck- at close to $20 hardcover, you could fly through the best chapters of the book (revisionist Sox history circa Babe Ruth/WW II/Jackie Robinson) in well under an hour. Large print and very small pages. The paperback version is a much better return on investment, but is still overpriced. I bought the hardcover before paperback was available, so it stung a bit more. And I remain a big fan of the Spaceman.
