I would highly recommend this to anyone who has read the book.

I second this! I bought it on audible.com and was surprised that instead of someone reading it to you, it is the actual tapes he made. Excellent book.
They are starting to get more baseball books out now. I listened to Walter Johnson by Henry Thomas (who I talked to at the National while I was listening to his book) I am now listening to The Big Bam about Ruth by Leigh Montville
