Summary: BEST RED SOX BOOK EVER!!!!
Comment: I have read many books on the Red Sox and this is by far the best one that I have seen.Stout and Johnson have done great research on the subject and take the reader through the long and exasperating history of the Boston American league baseball team as no one has before.I highly recommend this book to Red Sox fans.This book is better than I thought it would be.A must read for all Red Sox fans.The reader will see that alot of what was previously written about the Sox was just myth.The authors do an excellent job of setting the record straight on many key points throughout Red Sox history.

Summary: Best Red Sox Book Ever!!!!!!!
Comment: Wow!!! What can I say!?! From cover to cover this book grabbed my attention!! Glenn Stout has done an amazing job using exhaustive research to paint the most complete Red Sox history ever written!!! Combine that with great photos and this is one book any true baseball fan needs to have. Even if you're a fan of a different team, this book will interest you. After all, haven't the Red Sox gotten under just about every teams skin at one point or another!?! Go out now and buy this book!!!

Summary: I didn't know there was a major league team in Boston
Comment: Having seen them play I assumed the Red Sox were a AA minor league team, but I find they are still allowed to play with the other teams in the American League (to whit, I was startled to learn that once upon a time they were a legitamate contender; this obscure reference to another time had me checking this book and other references back to 1492 in pursuit of Bosox success).
I did learn about Ted Williams and Yaz and similar non-steroid addled test tube creations that once populated baseball (a nice respite from 2004, and anything post 1990 wherein all statistics are bogus and meaningless (if Bonds hit 73 hrs., I'm sure Babe Ruth would have hit 173).
480 pages of memories but sadly not marvelous ones, moreso depressing. And so, speaking of ones, I give it one star.
