"Never realized the O'Malley family were such pricks. Always thought they were a class act in LA. Great insight into some of the greatest players, managers and personalities in New York during the era. Too much play-by-play description of some games. Khan's sources are phenomenal, how much fun it would be to be a research assistant on this project!"
"Great detail about baseball in the "golden age" in New York. Kahn tells some terrific stories, but, often his tone smacks of a writer who is a little too convinced of his own greatness. Smug even. Still, a good baseball story is nothing to shake a stick at. worth reading."
