Thrilled to be working on a new book for the University Press of Kentucky on 19th Century baseball slugger and legend Pete Browning. Pete ended his career with a .341career average and 3 batting titles in two leagues, and was one of the game's most dominant players in the 1880s. He was also one of its most colorful. A legendary boozer who even when he was half-drunk was twice as good as most of his peers.
Out in 2023 maybe? Follow me on twitter for book updates.
