The Gashouse Gang and a Couple of Other Guys, penned by J. Roy Stockston and originally published in 1944, offers a nostalgic look back at one of baseball's most colorful and memorable teams: the St. Louis Cardinals of the 1930s. Known as the ""Gashouse Gang"" for their scrappy, unconventional style of play, this team captured the hearts of fans with their relentless spirit and unforgettable personalities.
Stockston's work vividly recreates the era, providing insights into the players, their manager, and the challenges they faced both on and off the field. More than just a recounting of game scores, the book delves into the camaraderie and the individual stories that made the Gashouse Gang a legend. This edition is a valuable resource for baseball historians and a delightful read for anyone who cherishes the golden age of the sport.
