The Man In Dugout Tekijä: Leonard Koppett

Quite possibly the finest biographical book I've ever read, regardless of subject. Well researched, and often supplemented by Koppett's personal knowledge of his subjects; in his long sportswriting career he got to know many major league managers. He wrote well, too.

The new thinking fan's guide to baseball Tekijä: Leonard Koppett

A good book for baseball novices, but also some info for die-hards... not included of course are any modern day ways of breaking down games and talent, it's a little dated for that.
