From the sandlots of San Francisco to the power centers of the game, Mark Armour's biography tells the story of Joe Cronin, one of twentieth-century baseball’s major players, both on the field and off. One of the best shortstop in baseball, Cronin was elected to the Hall of Fame in 1956. He was also the league's youngest player-manager, became general manager of the Red Sox, and then president of the American League.

Co-authored with Lyle Spatz, Steve Steinberg presents 1921. This book captures a crucial moment in the history of baseball, telling the story of a season that pitted the New York Yankees against their Polo Grounds landlords and hated rivals, John McGraw’s Giants, in the first all–New York Series, resulting in the first American League pennant for the now-storied Yankees’ franchise.
