Title: Comiskey Park's Last World Series
Description: The White Sox are one of the few teams of the power hitting-focused modern era to win a pennant with speed, pitching and defense. In focusing on the 1959 Chicago White Sox, Billington covers the team from a range of perspectives. He examines the club's historical importance to Chicago and the significance of the '59 "South Side Series"-- the first in 40 years. Many behind-the-scenes details are discussed, from the refined media markets of Golden Age baseball to the team's ancillary sources of revenue,  to the bitter legal feud between Charles Comiskey and Bill Veeck.  -- adapted from back cover
