A few books have been written which rank the greatest players of all time. Some use extensive statistical formulas, and some use the opinions of the author or of a committee. All of them cause arguments and this work is no different. The author presents his conclusions with much more detailed biographies of the top twenty pitchers and position players of all time, and shows how they are Not Like The Rest of Us. You will find yourself saying again and again, I didn't know that! The author examines what statistics mean in different eras of baseball; as pitching, hitting, equipment, stadiums and training have changed over the years. The overdue appearance of African-Americans into the Major Leagues changed the game significantly. This book examines the history of the Negro Leagues and includes some of those players within its pages. You will enjoy the player ratings, but also the lengthy details of the twenty greatest games, as well as the twenty greatest baseball books of all time. If you are a baseball nut, this book is for you.
