God's Perfect Book May 24, 2008
Write Guy (Massachusetts, USA)
It's 496 pages of baseball stats - the real kind, not the contrived Bill James geekazoid kind -, in about seven-point type. It tells you how many hit (50) Renny Duarte allowed in 50 innings for Caracas of the Venezuelan League. If you find the availablity of that fact incredibly cool, then buy the book. If you don't, or if you're some sort of commie-pinko-girly-man who doesn't realize that baseball is the true foundation of the civilized world, then buy something else.
Mrs Landingham, what's next?
Baseball Almanac A Hit April 14, 2008

Baseball America's 2008 Almanac is a real winner. I have been buying baseball record books since 1951 and have found the Almanac is the most comprehensive review of the previous season to be found anywhere. All major and minor league stats from 2007 are included along with a look at independent leagues, college and high school baseball, player drafts and obituaries. I find the format in which stats are presented for each major league team and its farm clubs together preferable to showing minor league stats by league. It's a reference book any real baseball fan should own.
