I wonder if the writer of this piece about Doug Glanville’s new book, The Game From Where I Stand, was thinking of Leonard Koppett when she titled her article “A thinking man’s guide to a baseball life.” Koppett, wrote one of the earlier and better far-reaching analysis in The Thinking Man’s (later Thinking Fan’s) Guide to Baseball.
Upshot: “True stories like those make Glanville’s book far more personal than the average sports biography. No ghostwriter for him: Instead, his personality rings through every line.”
