Title: A Good Subject, But A Disappointing Book
Product review: There has been a trend in the past few years to write books that cover a particular season, and 1960 would be a good year to include in a book. However, I didn't find anything new here. I feel it would be a book more suitable for high school students who are totally unfamiliar with that year in baseball. I was immediately suspicious with repeated misspellings of "Ebbetts Field". This would be an easy thing to check. Also on Page 129 I shuddered when I came across the name of "Johnny DeMaestri". Joe Demaestri, of course, along with first baseman Kent Hadley (neither mentioned) were acquired by the Yankees along with Roger Maris following the 1959 season. The book is filled out with appendices A-E with statistics, team rosters, trades, etc. I'm sorry, but I was disappointed.
