Baseball Forever! by Jason Turbow

Baseball Forever! by Jason Turbow

John Miley has compiled the most comprehensive audio account of baseball history in existence--a vast and wildly entertaining assemblage of game tapes from throughout the sport's history. His archive contains classic moments, like the Shot Heard 'round the World, and amazing feats, like Carl Hubbell striking out Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, Jimmie Foxx, Al Simmons, and Joe Cronin--in order--in the 1934 All-Star Game. Narrated by Bob Costas, Baseball Forever brings you highlights from Miley's collection, with numerous clips available for the first time since their original transmission. Bestselling author Jason Turbow (The Baseball Codes) mines the archive with Miley himself, taking us to some of baseball's greatest settings--Yankee Stadium, Ebbets Field, Fenway Park--while guided by the game's legendary broadcasters, like Mel Allen, Red Barber, Harry Caray, and Vin Scully. Miley and Turbow have carefully selected an abundance of highlights for Baseball Forever that is sure to inform, entertain, and appeal to anybody nostalgic for baseball's storied history.

Jason Turbow has written for publications such as the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, SportsIllustrated.com, Slam, Giants, and Athletics. He was also the content director for Giants Today, a San Francisco Chronicle full-page supplement. With his wife and two children, he lives in the San Francisco Bay region.
