I am definitely a madman with a box
I'm pretty sure I've read everything but Jackie and Campy (And Changing the Game), but everything listed is definitely worth reading.

The Wally Yonamine book is a good option, since it's a story not many people know.

The Universal Baseball Association, Inc., J. Henry Waugh, Prop. is also a ton of fun.

Veeck as in Wreck is something everyone should read at some point, as Bill Veeck is awesome, while Jonah Keri did a really good job with Up Up and Away.

One book not mentioned that I really like is If I Never Get Back, which is a fun fiction novel.

And it might not be book club worthy, but Flip Flop Fly Ball is awesome.

But clearly this book club is just waiting for the 3rd book of Norman Macht's giant Connie Mack biography so we can read all of it at once. :haw:

I am definitely a madman with a box
I also finished in last week, but am waiting for more people to finish up before I talk about it.

But yeah, the timing of the ending is a bit unfortunate.
