The Glory of Their Times
Ritter, Larry
Morrow, 1984; Perennial, 1992 (orig. 1966)

This groundbreaking work has 1960s interviews with many players from the Deadball Era (1901-19) and early Lively Ball Era (1920>). The Audio CD is not to be overlooked (Highbridge, 1998). It is moving to hear the actual voices of the men, elderly when they were recorded, who played the game.
