I think these things are coming along nicely, don’t you? Every time, I learn how do so something new. Fun. Most recently, I got to continue this experiment with Keith Law, author of The Inside Game: Bad Calls, Strange Moves, and What Baseball Behavior Teaches Us About Ourselves. One of the things I appreciate about […]

Note: The Amazon rankings are updated every hour, so these lists might not be 100 percent accurate by the time you read them (or even by the time I finish writing one).

Happy Thanksgiving, y’all. By now most of you are familiar with my caveats, so I’ll just mention them briefly: The list includes only print editions of books; calendars (even though Amazon includes them on their lists), no audiobooks (as much as I enjoy them), and no kindle (because I’m old school). Second, since the rankings […]

NOTE: I have been posting these things long enough now that a few have commented that the introductory section isn’t necessary anymore. But I’m leaving it in because, to paraphrase Joe DiMaggio when asked why he played so hard all the time, there may be people who’ve never read the best-seller entries before. So on […]
