Moving from the volatile 1960s into the 1970s, baseball faced many challenges. The growing strength of a players' union and the controversial movements of troubled franchises presented singular situations. The game's commissioner was a recent arrival, and, with free agency not yet a factor, a host of players were traded. Under new managers, several teams were emerging as potential fierce contenders for the top spot in their leagues.

Thoroughly researched and illustrated, this book covers the historical and cultural aspects of the national pastime in this era. Read more
