Seller's Description:
Andrew Newman. Very good in Very good jacket. xiii, [1], 576, [2] pages. Index. Slight soiling to DJ. The author looked into what really happened during a three-year period when the owners froze the free-agent market. John Helyar (born 1951) is an American former journalist who has worked for The Wall Street Journal, Fortune magazine, ESPN, ESPN The Magazine and Bloomberg News. He currently works as a research analyst at Select Equity Group. Helyar is the author of the books Lords of the Realm: The Real History of Baseball (which, according to WorldCat, is held in 688 libraries). His reporting with Bryan Burrough on RJR Nabisco earned them the 1989 Gerald Loeb Award for Deadline and/or Beat Writing. They turned their research into the book Barbarians at the Gate: The Fall of RJR Nabisco (held in 2249 libraries), which was made into a film of the same title. Derived from a Kirkus review: Wall Street Journal reporter Helyar colorfully argues that baseball has been run poorly from its humble 19th-century beginnings to its current status as a multibillion-dollar enterprise. Baseball players have taken the brunt of the blame, but Helyar shifts the onus almost entirely to the owners. Prime examples: the owners' near total absence of self-restraint in bidding up players' salaries and the refusal of large-market clubs to share the riches with their poorer colleagues in a revenue-sharing plan. Helyar takes us inside the most intimate meetings at some of the most crucial moments in baseball history. The gossip-column quality of writing makes a thick tome on the business of baseball read like a suspense novel. A must-read for baseball fans and for anyone who would like to know how the very wealthy and the very ambitious manage the business of America's national pastime.
