There was a book on Hack Wilson that came out about the year 2000. Very good. Next to the one out the same year on Waddell, one of the better Bio's. Hack Wilson died penniless at the age of 48 years, eight months and 27 days. Very sad story. The description of him, at the hospital, on his last day, will send shivers down your spine. I won't spoil it......read the book. It was written by Clifton parker.

The book is called "Fouled Away" The Baseball tragedy of Hack Wilson"
