This biography of Edd Roush, Indiana-born deadball batting king, centers on the events of the 1919 Black Sox World series but covers his life in full. Roush earned two National League batting titles and entered the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1962. The work contains interviews with Roush and photographs, many from the Roush family collection.
“of great use to baseball historians and fans of the deadball era and the 1920s...this is an important book as it provides insight into a lost star in the baseball galaxy”—Nine; “Stinson’s compelling prose is as captivating to read as his research is thorough and extensive. I was reminded of long-forgotten stories and enjoyed much newly uncovered information. Absolutely a must-read for anyone interested in baseball history.”—Jade Roush Dellinger
