"1921", Co-authored by NWSABR member Steve Steinberg, is Published
Written by Mary Groebner   

NWSABR member Steve Steinberg and his East Coast colleague Lyle Spatz announce that their new book on the 1921 baseball season 1921, The Yankees, the Giants, and the Battle for Baseball Supremacy in New York has been published by the University of Nebraska Press.

Set in America's greatest city at the dawn of its most flamboyant decade,this is the story of the 1921 baseball season.  It revolves around two sensational pennant races culminating in a dramatic World Series. The book is highlighted by the New York Yankees winning their first pennant and then battling their Polo Grounds landlords and hated rivals, John McGraw's Giants, in the first all-New York World Series. A subtext of this battle is the charismatic Babe Ruth and his assault on baseball records in the face of McGraw's disdain for the American League and the Ruth-led new slugging style.

Find out more about 1921 by visiting Steve's website and clicking on the 1921 tab.  Among other features, you'll find an "Interview" with Lyle and Steve, as well as "Ten Intriguing Facts about 1921.
