Title: DAMN SENATORS - MY GRANDFATHER AND THE STORY OF WASHINGTON'S ONLY WORLD SERIES CHAMPIONSHIP
Description: Mark Judge has written a book that is at once a touching memoir of his grandfather, star first baseman for the old Washington Senators; a history of baseball in its golden age; and an exciting account of the Senators’ 1924 World Series victory. For years, the Washington Senators were the doormat of the American League, but in 1924 everything came together. Mark Judge offers unforgettable portraits of legends such as Ty Cobb, Walter (“Big Train”) Johnson, Babe Ruth, “Goose” Goslin, Al Schacht and John McGraw. With a new baseball franchise rumored to be coming to the nation’s capital, Damn Senators may be taking us back to the future.
