Memories of a Ballplayer: Bill Werber and Baseball in the 1930s (Society for American Baseball Research)
Now 92, Werber looks back on a career as an infielder with the Yankees, Red Sox, A's, Reds, and Giants from 1930s to 1942. A Duke graduate, he tells knowingly of playing with and against Ruth, Gomez, Dean, Greenberg, Williams, and others while also relating off-field escapades. Werber's frank opinions on fellow players, managers, commissioners, and others highlight an often humorous memoir. A good choice for any public library sport shelf.Copyright 2001 Reed Business Information, Inc.
