O knihe
In 1916, over 500 men played in a major league game. Many of those players? names are inseparable from baseball while others have only one line in the record books. This book is the first to focus on a representative group of major leaguers, the Class of 1916, in seeking answers to the questions: Who was the average major leaguer in the late deadball era? What was his background? and What became of him when his playing days ended? Introductory chapters offer background information on the era and discuss the 1916 season; provide information on the players' ethnic and geographic origins, ages, and average physical sizes; chart player performance; and summarize post-playing careers and mortality statistics for the group. The main body of the work, a biographical dictionary, is arranged alphabetically, and each entry includes career and biographical information, statistics, post-baseball accomplishments and death. Many rare photographs accompany the text.
