Items related to The October Heroes
"A wonderful baseball book, entertaining from beginning to end. What a pleasure to have those great baseball memories come alive." - Larry Ritter, author of "The Glory of Their Times". "Like earlier collaborations between the Honig tape recorder and typewriter, "The October Heroes" is a delight." - Red Smith. "Donald Honig does it again, recreating memorable hours in baseball through the insight of the best sources possible: the men who played and lived through those hours...The result is a rare look inside all those Octobers." - "New York Times". "A literary home run!" - Bob Broeg, sports editor, "St. Louis Post-Dispatch". As Donald Honig points out in his introduction, "Every World Series in itself is a tale with beginning, middle, and end, and because there must be a winner, there must be a hero." Tales of Babe Ruth, Honus Wagner, Grover Cleveland Alexander, Sandy Koufax, and Willie Mays are related by the star players who knew them. Those players recall vivid moments from their World Series games, stretching from 1912 to 1974. Donald Honig, a former professional ball player, lives in Cromwell, Connecticut.
