Peach: Ty Cobb In His Time And Ours
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Although it has been more than 75 years since he last laced up his spikes, Ty Cobb remains arguably the greatest player in the long history of baseball. Certainly the Detroit Tigers outfielder remains the most controversial. He hit .367 over 24 seasons (1905-1928), won a dozen batting titles, and was the first man elected to baseball's Hall of Fame. But it was his blowtorch personality that set the "Georgia Peach" apart from all others.
From the Inside Flap
Timed to coincide with the 100th anniversary of Cobb's 1905 debut in the major leagues, and featuring 150 rarely seen photographs, Peach provides a balanced analysis of this baseball icon's life inside and outside the game, with particular emphasis on his treatment in pop culture and public memory.
