Any recommendations from this list? I've got a vacation coming up and would love some reading for the beach.

Of the ones I have, 1,
4, 5, 7, 8 & 9 for beach reads. The others are more like reference books, big, heavy and full of pictures/ illustrations 1 and 9 are light hearted. 4,5,7 and 8 are more serious reads |

It is the former ballplayer.

Really? That does not sound like the Mike Shannon I have been listening to for the last 40 years.

you are correct, it is not the former player, which is, unfortunately, what I meant to say. He is an editor of basball related material, (Spitball), etc. Sorry for the screw up.

This Mike Shannon has also written a wonderful though out-of-print book on collecting baseball books. McFarland Press may still have some?
His list of baseball card books is dead on! I would throw in Lew Lipset's 3 volume set of encyclopedias! |
