Title: The Big Train
Review: One cannot live in Washington, DC and be interested in baseball without being interested in the greatest of tghe local players, Walter Johnson. There's even a local high school named for him. (Will there be any Barry Bonds schools?) This is the story of his life, focusing of course on his baseball career.By any standard Johnson is one of the all-time great pitchers. Reading about his life tells the reader much about how the business of baseball operated early in the 20th century, as well as detailing his exploits to those of us far too young ever to have seen him play. The accounts of him pitching in the World Series alone are worth the price of the book for their human interest.
