About This Item
Perfect Game Publishing, 2019. 1st. Paperback. Very Good. Signed and Inscribed by Author - 1st Edition, 1st Printing (Oct 2019 - Perfect Game Publ). VERY GOOD with no marks with tight and square binding. Light wear on cover. Gently read. . . . . . . King of the Southern Diamond is both a baseball biography and family memoir. Author Bradsher Hayes has unearthed a wealth of historical detail about one of the greatest college baseball pitchers of all time â€ââ'¬Â his own grandfather. Playing for Trinity College (now Duke University) between 1901 and 1905, Arthur Bradsher threw 582 strikeouts, 15 shutouts and five no-hitters. No less an authority than John Heisman labeled Bradsher “The King of the Southern Diamond.â€Ã' To bring Bradsher’s story to life, Hayes utilizes family recollections, diaries and photos, as well as extensive archival research, including more than 300 newspaper articles from that period. He brings to his work a deep knowledge of all things baseball. The reader can’t help but get swept up in the author’s love of the game â€ââ'¬Â and of the grandfather he never met. Anyone interested in the history of baseball at the beginning of the 20th century will find this book an absolute delight. -- Pennman
