Editorial Reviews

Los Angeles Times
Rich and always interesting....This is the most authentic and convincing book about baseball I have ever read.

The Plain Dealer
Brosnan provides a dose of humor, a touch of self-deprecation and a shot of unvarnished reality.
Washington Post
...The best of its kind... timeless.... Over the years some players were even smart enough to grasp that The Long Season did them, and baseball, a favor, by capturing its human side and in so doing making them more, rather than less, interesting and admirable.
Chicago Sun-Times
The book revolutionized sports journalism with its frank reportorial style that took the reader inside the heart of the clubhouse.

WASHINGTON POST
The Long Season not merely changed everything, it remains, decades later, the best of its kind.... Timeless...
