About This Item
South Bend, IN: Diamond Communications, Inc, 1995. Second printing [stated]. Hardcover. Very good/Very good. Frank Johnston (author photograph). xiii, 303 pages. Illustrations. Notes. Bibliography. Index. Jack Torry was a Bureau Chief for the Washington Bureau in the Columbus (OH) Dispatch. Previously he had worked for the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette and the Toledo Blade. This was his firs book. This book takes you into the executive suites, lakeshore apartments, and political backrooms where the men with money and clout make the decisions that transformed the Indians from World Series contenders in 1954 to pathetic losers for four decades. Jack Torry offers a revealing account of the franchise's last 40 years of baseball from its stunning decline in the 1950s and 1960s and the teams dramatic transformation into champions in the 1990s, intertwining sports and business, politics and law.
