Great Pictures, Great Story, Great Color

1995 was the 'recovery' World Series. The 1994 series was cancelled. Yes, the event that had survived two World Wars, the Federal League intrusion of 1914, and the death of the reserve clause could not survive an internal war between millionaires and billionaires. The only loser was the fans. Enter the Atlanta Braves. The team of the first half of the 1990s, the Braves entered the series yet to win it all despite three previous division titles. Enter the Clevland Indians. Forty years - an entire generation - since their last World Series appearance. Forty-seven years since their last triumph in 1948. And who did they beat for that title? The Braves!! Greg Maddux. Kenny Lofton. Albert Belle. Tom Glavine. Chipper Jones. Carlos Baerga. Jim Thome. Ken Hill. Steve Avery. David Jstice. They're all here in living color. A great book for your coffee table.
