Overview

Five-time New York Times best-selling author Peter Golenbock brings forth the definitive oral history of the Boston Red Sox. His focus is on the players, managers and owners who were the colorful characters and legends that guided their legion of fans. This isn't some dusty, boring retelling of the franchise's history; Golenbock goes back and forth from laying out the facts of a situation and then allowing the key players in each anecdote to offer their personal reflection, opinion, or commentary. Experience the entire history of the Red Sox, sit down with all the key people, and get the proper perspective on the Red Sox's place in baseball history.
