The ups and downs of one of the great baseball teams of all times. Boston has always been known as a great baseball town, from the start of baseball, and back in 1869 had a championship team.

Full of dramatic victories, of great ball players like Speaker, Joe Wood, of great managers like Carrigan and Joe Cronin.... Another baseball book that shows that baseball is big business as well as America's favorite sport.
