Synopsis
As John Cheever declared, "all literary men are Red Sox fans" -and certainly no baseball team has inspired more eloquence than the storied Sox. The best of those stories reside here, celebrating the team's highs, from the pennant races through the careers of Williams, Yaz, and Boggs, and eulogizing its most poignant lows, from the loss of Ruth to the ball that rolled through Buckner's legs.

Synopsis
Since 1901, the Boston Red Sox have enjoyed the adulation of baseball devotees throughout New England. This revised and expanded anthology of writing on the Red Sox aims to capture the heartbreak, humour and high tension of nine decades, from the origins of "The Green Monster" bounding Fenway's left field, to the legendary "Hall of Fame" players Ted Williams and Carl Yastrzemski. It contains extracts from books, magazines and newspapers, and essays by literary figures. The revised and expanded edition includes extracts from "The Curse of the Bambino" by Dan Shaughnessy and a piece by David Halberstam.
