Review:
Shaughnessy emerges as something like a jockĘs Hawthorne, evoking the muse and writing of witchcraft, foiled heroism, and the scarlett letter B upon every Red Sox fanĘs breast. (Scott Booth, The National) A wonderful book that performs magnificently on every levelłas history, as mythology, as drama, and as pure entertainment. (Doris Kearns Goodwin) The quintessential New England horror story. Read it and weep. (Stephen King)
