Description

More than a century ago, the Philadelphia Athletics enjoyed a glorious five-season run under legendary manager Connie Mack, winning three World Series and four pennants from 1910 through 1914. A’s stars such as Hall of Famers Eddie Plank, Eddie Collins, Albert “Chief” Bender and Frank “Home Run” Baker are well known among baseball aficionados—and this book reveals more about their lives and careers. Mack’s pivotal role in founding the team and building it into a successful franchise—before he shocked the sports world by dismantling it—is covered, along with advent of the all-but-forgotten Federal League.
