Paths To Glory – Better Late Than Never
Today was a Jury Duty day down in the Land of Thunder. Ah, nothing like having to leave the house at 6:45 am for a nice 50 mile drive…
But, since I was going to be penned up for the day, or most of it, I decided to take advantage of it.
I’m a self-confessed baseball book junkie. But, as such, I sometimes buy baseball books and don’t read them right away. It’s usually because I’m reading another, or more, baseball books at the same time that I bought the one which landed in the “read later” pile. And, to be candid, the “read later” pile is bigger than I would like to confess to…especially over the last 6 years or so, since I have such little “free” time these days.
But, today, I was determined to rescue one book off the pile. And, I chose “Paths to Glory: How Great Baseball Teams Got That Way.” I picked this one up, in hardcover, back in 2003 because I heard a lot of good things, back then, about it. But, sadly, it got buried in the “pile.” Until…today!
Cracking it open, now, and having a chance to get into it, I now see what all the buzz was about six-some years ago. “Paths to Glory: How Great Baseball Teams Got That Way” is a very good book. And, now that I’ve started it, I’m not putting it back until I finish it.
If you’ve never read it, I suggest that you check it out.
