After ten zillion delays The second book of SABR's Deadball Stars, this one on the American league arrived in the mail today. What a treat. For anyone interested in some of the lesser known players of the deadball era, this is a must. I am sure that it is available through Amazon |

Yep, I got mine yesterday and have already read the bio of about 10 of the players. I would love to see this type of book expanded into perhaps a "nineteenth century stars of the major leagues" then they could go even further back and do a "Pioneering stars of the National Pastime"....once they finish that they could hit the 1920-40 era. |

Dan, I think SABR has done 2 volumes of 19c stars. I got my DBSoAL a few days ago too. This what makes a SABR membership worthwhile. |

A hardcover set of Deadball Stars is available from SABR at $60 for members. I'd love to see updated versions, in hardcover, of 19th Century Stars and Baseball's First Stars. |

You should get both 19th century books because there is no overlap of players and every one of them includes a photograph, a lengthy biography, and full stats dating back to the 1860's. They are indispensable. |
