What fans don’t love to relive the good times of their favorite team? Likewise, in a twisted sort of way, what fans can really resist a self-pitying look back on some of those times that tested their allegiance? Those forgettable games, seasons, and plays that made the good times even better?

The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly Detroit Tigers by George Cantor presents all the best moments and personalities in the history of the Detroit Tigers. It also unmasks, but doesn’t revel in, the bad, the regrettably awful and the unflinchingly ugly.

In entertaining—and unsparing—fashion, this book sparkles with Tigers highlights, lowlights, wonderful and wacky memories, legends and goats, the famous and the infamous. You’ll relive the impressive run to the World Series in 2006 but also the horrendous years, when Tigers were in the cellar of their division. The clutch hitting of Kirk Gibson in the 1984 World Series but also the disastrous 2003 season.

The Good, the Bad, the Ugly Detroit Tigers includes the best and worst Tiger teams and players of all time, the most clutch performances and performers, the biggest choke jobs and chokers, great comebacks and blown leads, plus overrated and underrated Tiger players and coaches. There are Tigers you loved for all the right reasons, and those you couldn’t stand, sublime and embarrassing records, and trades, both savvy and savagely bad. Brawls and fights. Rivalries. Compelling photos. And much, much more.

If you’re a through-thick-and-thin Tigers follower, The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly Detroit Tigers is definitely for you. It will remind you of the good and great teams and bring a knowing smile about some of those other times, when you proved yourself to be a loyal fan. For everyone else, this warts-and-all portrait of the Tigers will provide countless fond memories, goose bumps, and laughs.

About the author: George Cantor has spent much of his life watching the Detroit Tigers from the stands and the pressbox of Tiger Stadium and Comerica Park. He covered the 1968 World Series championship team as a baseball writer and wrote about the 1984 team as a columnist. Since retiring from daily journalism, he has been teaching sportswriting classes at Oakland University and looks forward to taking his granddaughter to her first Tigers game.
