A Passion for Baseball, January 11, 2001

By A Customer

passion for the game is a gorgeous book. henry's photography is breathtaking: it takes you up close and behind the scenes of the wonderful american tradition that is baseball. the pages are filled with in depth quotes from some of baseball's biggest legends--Sosa, Fernandez and Olerud to name a few. one of the best modern baseball books i've seen.
