Author David Heller champions the '44 Browns as legitimate pennant winners, worthy of the same respect given to the '43 Yankees and '45 Cubs of the same era, and offers a wealth of biographical info on the team's colorful cast of characters. He recounts the entire season-from spring training woes through one of the most exciting pennant races of any decade to the all-St. Louis World Series versus the cross-town rival Cardinals. Over 50 vintage photographs highlight the book. Heller has been published in the Washington Post, Philadelphia Daily News, and Detroit Free Press.view less
