The book is narrated by a former sportswriter, as Broun was, in love with a free-spirited, intellectual feminist, as was Broun's wife, while she falls for a baseball player who is clearly modeled on Babe Ruth. Numerous players of the 1920s appear by name" (Andy McCue, Baseball by the Books). Octavo: 204 p. with publisher's ads at the rear. Original burgundy cloth binding, with gilt titles. A bit of rubbing to the gilt stamping on the spine, with some minor edgewear to the boards. In the scarce dust jacket, which especially bright with shallow chipping to the tips and a small spot to the spine; otherwise very good.
