Ten great incidents from world series play -- beginning in 1912 and ending as late as 1960-- are retold with warmth, vigor and a real sense of immediacy. The stories are classics. We see Joe Devore's spectacular catch, Casey Stengel's homer, Babe Ruth's most famous homer, Dizzy Dean's pitching, etc. Accompanied by brief biographies and batting averages of the players involved, this should win readers among sports fans of all ages.
