The Cardinals of Cooperstown, Second Edition: Featuring Legends from the Cardinals, Browns, and Negro League Stars is like a new model of a classic car: a trusted name from the original version but with updated stories and features. Like its best-selling predecessor, the second edition serves as richly illustrated compendium of baseball immortals in profile. As an update, this book celebrates the newest inductees into baseball's hallowed hall--managers Tony LaRussa and Joe Torre, an MVP Cardinal third baseman. Also highlighted are St. Louis Browns Hall of Famers, led by the legendary first baseman George Sisler, and enshrinees from the city's Negro League teams, which included the great James ''Cool Papa'' Bell.
