From the Back Cover:
This is the story of a town's love affair with its team and the colorful characters who have worn the Rochester flannels over the years.
From Library Journal:
Claiming that the city of Rochester has had a form of baseball since the 1820s, two journalists trace the often exciting story of the Rochester Red Wings. Part of the International League since 1877, the Wings have had their share of pennants, disappointments, and financial crises. The book celebrates the team's many great players and leaders, such as Billy Southworth, Stan Musial, Jim Palmer, Cal Ripken Jr., Joe Altobelli, Bob Gibson, and late owner Morrie Silver. Sure to be wanted in Red Wing territory and, given the rising popularity of minor league baseball, also worth considering elsewhere.?Morey Berger, St. Joseph's Hospital Medical Lib., Tucson, Ariz.
