I like this book because it has awesome stuff.
The book is good because it has stuff on women in baseball and on the Negro leagues. It is good to have that stuff because it is not in books as often. It also has trivia questions and the answers to them. And the illustrations are very nice. It is a good book.

Not to mention the small town feel of baseball as it should be -- these are the memories I want to share with my children. Now whenever we take a summer vacation, we'll be taking the Minor League Baseball Book with us.

The Composite Guide to Field Hockey
The Composite Guide to Field Hockey is a great book for players, coaches, or officials who want to gain a deeper understanding of the game. As an official, I must keep myself up-to-date on all of the new rules of sports, and know not only the rules but how each sport is played. Any referee planning to officiate a field hockey game should read this book!
