With this volume, David Nemec completes his remarkable trilogy of 19th-century baseball biographies, covering every major league player, manager, umpire, owner, and league official. It provides in-depth information on those figures unnoticed by most historians, men noted in the historical record only by last name, or not at all. Each detailed entry includes vital statistics, peer-driven analysis of baseball-related skills, and an overview of the individual’s role in the game. Also chronicled are players’ first and last major league games, most important achievements, movements from team to team, and much more. By unearthing the stories of these overlooked baseball personalities, this reference enriches the history of 19th century baseball.
