1.		The Boys of Summer from Harper Perennial Modern Classics Price: $8.00 Customer Review: Roger Kahn's magnificent portrayal of how the glory and anguish of a very talented, yet flawed baseball team---the Brooklyn Dodgers of the early '50s---became an aging group of men who experienced an inordinate amount of personal travail; and in the process, the reader is made acutely aware of how... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


2.		The Era, 1947-1957: When the Yankees, the Giants, and the Dodgers Ruled the World from Bison Books Price: $9.99 Customer Review: THE ERA is Roger Kahn's anecdotal, witty and exceptionally readable retelling of the eleven baseball seasons between 1947 and 1957 (also known as "The Glory Days") when baseball was preeminently the National Pastime, and New York City was the capital of the baseball universe. Kahn, an ultimate... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


3.		A Flame of Pure Fire: Jack Dempsey and the Roaring '20s from Mariner Books Price: $3.06 Customer Review: I always enjoy Roger Kahn's writing....he takes the reader right inside the ring and the life of Jack Dempsey. There is so much history and societal comment, about what was happening during Dempsey's champion days. The writing is excellent and he is able to make Dempsey come alive on the pages, even... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


4.		The Head Game: Baseball Seen from the Pitcher's Mound from Harvest Books Price: $0.01 Customer Review: Roger Kahn became famous for writing about "The Boys of Summer," but I think this was his most readable book about baseball.....kind of a treatise on pitchers and what makes them tick. He looks at great pitchers ranging all the way back to Christy Matthewson to modern-day men like Tom Glavine.more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


5.		Good Enough to Dream from Bison Books Price: $6.00 Customer Review: ...anything about minor league ball. no matter how great a fan you are of mlb, even if you've followed a season or two of japanese ball or watched some action in the caribbean, the giant stream of talent that flows through the minors is probably invisible to you. in fact, unless you have a... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

7.		Memories of Summer: When Baseball Was an Art, and Writing about It a Game (Bison Book) from Bison Books Price: $8.99 Customer Review: The flowing pen of author Roger Kahn provides readers with books of nostalgia and heart. Here he covers baseball in New York City in the bygone 1950's, his love affair with the Brooklyn Dodgers (whom he covered as reporter from 1952-1953), plus the Yankees and Giants. Readers learn a few things... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


8.		October Men: Reggie Jackson, George Steinbrenner, Billy Martin, and the Yankees' Miraculous Finish in 1978 Price: $4.64 Customer Review: It's neither as funny nor as thorough as Sparky Lyle's book, the Bronx Zoo, when it comes to the Yankees in 1978, but Kahn does do a good enough job of telling the history of the franchise and the main characters leading up to that classic season. Kahn is especially good at explaining the... more info	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


9.		Into My Own: The Remarkable People and Events That Shaped a Life from St. Martin's Griffin Price: $4.79 Customer Review: Great book even if your not a sports fan.I bought the book because I was good friends with Roger Kahn Jr. and spent some time at Desisto school with Roger.Mr Kahn's remarks about Desisto are actually tame compared to what I have to say about him.The chapter about Roger Jr. brought tears to my... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


10.		Beyond the Boys of Summer: The Very Best of Roger Kahn from McGraw-Hill Price: $2.65 Customer Review: This is a moving collection of sportswriter Roger Kahn's writing over the last half century. There's information on the old Brooklyn Dodgers, of course, including Jackie Robinson, Carl Furillo, Pee Wee Reese, and Duke Snider. We also enjoy several looks at baseball stars from other teams (Mays,... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


11.	[no image]	The Boys of Summer from Signet Price: $4.35 Customer Review: ..because Kahn wrote it right after Jackie Robinson died, so there's a lot toward the end about him. Things which--in later editions, aren't there, and in earlier edition aren't there because they hadn't happened yet. Called by "Sports Illutrated" "the greatest sports book of all time," it... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


12.		Pete Rose: My Story from Macmillan Pub Co Price: $2.75 Customer Review: The book was very well written and was very good up until the time when Rose was charged with gambling. When it got at this time Rose talked around every single topic he was asked. Because of this book I am 99% sure Pete Rose bet on baseball.	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

Price: $4.75 Customer Review: Just when we think there couldn't possibly be one word left to be written, said or whispered about the tragic life of Marilyn Monroe something else comes along.
