Title: Only if you appreciate fantasy
Review: The device used in this book to recount the saga of the Cincinnati Red Stockings is a good one, I suppose, if you gobble up fantasy. But the idea of present day person living in 1869 and knowing all that has happened since is a difficult one. Conrad Richter uses a similar device in The Waters of Kronos and I liked that book. But the author here did not succeed in making me believe in the scenario, and this got in the way of enjoying the book. But I suppose the scores and the like are authentic? The author could have at least given us a bibliography, if there is one. Thus those who wanted to know about the winning streak could check on it.
