Plot

When the lights came on again after World War II, they illuminated a nation ready for heroes and a city--New York--eager for entertainment. Baseball provided the heroes, and the Yankees, the Giants, and the Dodgers--with their rivalries, their successes, their stars--provided the show. "We shall not have such an era again except in such loving books as this one."--Red Barber. 16 pages of photos.
