Reviews
"What an absolute pleasure. It was delightful the way Brian Martin presented the life of Barney Dreyfuss, his Pittsburgh Pirates at the beginning of the 20th century, and his early organized baseball exploits so exactly and meticulously."--Len Martin, creator, Forbes Field: Build-It-Yourself, "A needed contribution to baseball history....[T]he author makes a strong case for Dreyfuss as a powerful owner and a worthy Hall of Famer."--Gabriel Schechter, author, Spanking the Yankees: 365 Days of Bronx Bummers, "In recent years there has been a welcome interest in the history of the business of baseball and those who have made significant contributions to the growth and development of the game.... These studies have tended to focus on the post-World War II period and generally neglect earlier eras. Brian Martin has made a major contribution to narrowing this gap with the first full length biography of Barney Dreyfuss, the Pittsburgh owner who helped transform the Pirates.... The reviewer recommends it highly."-- SABR Deadball Era Committee Newsletter, "A much-needed biography of the Hall of Fame pioneer, Pittsburgh Pirates owner and National League official and baseball magnate."-- The Inside Game
